Limit Priority Over Time and Max User Priority by Queue

There are user workflows that require using priority to order flows and their execution. However, when priority over time is enabled, those methods break down. Using Priority Over Time to APS and Priority Queues is essential, but causes issues in ...

Merge RES_REQ also when alternative RES_REQs are used

Currently settings from the app-profile are not merges with the job/queue settings when a alternative RES_REQ is provided in the submission command (bsub). We require this because we have a need to specify alternative RES_REQs in the submission an...

GSLA Resource Loaning - Add the ability to loan to specific users or projects

When a GSLA resource pool is defined for a specific type of workload, it is not practical or desirable to loan to just any other type of job profile. The work-a-round today is to include a resource limit definition to prevent this from occurring. ...

Set different requeue exit values for different hosts or hostgroups

Sometimes it would be helpful to set different requeue exit values for different hostgroups, something like (i.e. in lsb.applications):REQUEUE_EXIT_VALUES 138 linux_hosts 210 windows_hosts 127 which would trigger a requeue for jobs exiting with va...

Do not start jobs with less than X cores per host

It is useful for when ptiles or slots do not fulfill your needs. Using an example, we have an MPI code that requests 100 cores. We don't tell LSF how to grab those cores, and sometimes it will go out and span across 12 nodes, taking 19 cores on on...

Ability to reserve GPUs in LSF advanced reservations

It's currently not possible to reserve GPUs in an advanced reservation with LSF, unlike CPUs (slots) and memory. For example, we have some hosts with 120 CPU slots and 8 GPUs. I want to create a reservation that reserves half of a node. I can do t...
