runs lsfinstall, the Platform LSF installation and configuration script
lsfinstall runs the LSF installation scripts and configuration utilities to install a new Platform LSF cluster or upgrade LSF from a previous release.
To install a fully operational LSF cluster that all users can access, you should install as root.
You can run lsfinstall as a non-root user, with limitations.
Before installing and configuring LSF, lsfinstall checks the installation prerequisites, and outputs the results to lsfprechk.rpt. lsfinstall writes any unrecoverable errors to the Install.err file and exits. You must correct these errors before continuing to install and configure LSF.
During installation, lsfinstall logs installation progress in the Install.log file, calls other utilities to uncompress, extract and copy product files, installs a license, and configures the cluster.
After installation, you should run hostsetup to set up each server host in the cluster. After setting up the server hosts, you should start your cluster and test the installation by running some basic commands.
lsfinstall is included in the LSF installation script tar file lsf8.0_lsfinstall.tar.Z and is located in the lsf8.0_lsfinstall directory created when you uncompress and extract installation script tar file.
After installation, lsfinstall is located in LSF_TOP/8.0/install/.
Name of the file containing the installation options. The file can be any name you choose. The name of the default template file for normal installation is install.config. To install slave hosts for dynamic host configuration, use the template file slave.config.
Specify installation options in the slave.config file.
If the master host does not use the default LSF_LIM_PORT, you must specify the same LSF_LIM_PORT defined in lsf.conf on the master host.
