The following example shows the output from the

bhosts

command:

$ bhosts

Of note in the

bhosts

output:

The

HOST_NAME

column displays the name of the LSF execution host.

The

MAX

column displays the total processor count (usable CPUs) of all available computer

nodes in the

lsf

partition.

The

STATUS

column shows the state of LSF and displays a status of either

ok

or

closed

.

The

NJOBS

column displays the number of jobs.

7.3.2 Getting Information About LSF-HPC Execution Host Node

The

lshosts

command displays resource information about the LSF-HPC execution host

node. This command is useful for checking machine-specific information.

LSF daemons run on only one node in the HP XC system, so the

lshosts

command will

list one host — which represents all the resources of the HP XC system. The total number
of processors for that host should be equal to the total number of processors assigned to the
SLURM

lsf

partition.

By default,

lshosts

returns the following information: host name, host type, host model, CPU

factor, number of CPUs, total memory, total swap space, server information, and static resources.

The following example shows the output from the

lshosts

command:

$ lshosts

HOST_NAME

Of note in the

lshosts

output:

The

HOST_NAME

column displays the name of the LSF-HPC execution host,

lsfhost.localdomain

and any other HP XC nodes that have been granted a floating

client license because LSF commands were executed on them. LSF-HPC does not know
about these floating client hosts, so they are listed as

UNKNOWN

types and models.

The

ncpus

column displays the total processor count (usable CPUs) of all available

computer nodes in the

lsf

partition.

The

maxmem

column displays minimum

maxmem

over all available computer nodes in

the

lsf

partition.

The

maxtmp

column (not shown) displays minimum

maxtmp

over all available computer

nodes in the

lsf

partition. Use the

lshosts -l

command to display this column.

7.3.3 Getting Host Load Information

The LSF

lsload

command displays load information for LSF execution hosts.

$ lsload

In the previous example output, the LSF execution host (

lsfhost.localdomain

) is listed

under the

HOST_NAME

column. The

status

is listed as

ok

, indicating that it can accept

remote jobs. The

ls

column shows the number of current login users on this host.
