Getting Host Information LSF keeps information about all hosts in the cluster. Some information is static and some is dynamic. Static information is either configured by the LSF administrator, or is a fixed property of the system. An example of static host information is the amount of RAM memory available to users on a host. Dynamic host information, or load indices, is determined by the LSF system, and updated regularly.
Dynamic information represents the changing resources available on the host.
Examples of dynamic host information are the current CPU load and the currently available temporary file space. Displaying Static Host Information A load sharing cluster may consist of hosts of differing architecture and speed. The lshosts command displays configuration information about hosts. All these parameters are defined by the LSF administrator in the LSF configuration files, or determined by the LIM directly from the system. The lsload command prints out current load information.
