Submitting Interactive Jobs
Submitting an interactive job by using a pseudo-terminal
Submission of interaction jobs using pseudo-terminal is not supported for
Windows for either lsrun or bsub LSF commands.
bsub -Ip To submit a batch interactive job by using a pseudo-terminal, use the bsub -
Ip option.
When you specify the -Ip option, bsub submits a batch interactive job and
creates a pseudo-terminal when the job starts. Some applications such as vi
for example, require a pseudo-terminal in order to run correctly.
For example:
% bsub -Ip vi myfile
Submits a batch interactive job to edit myfile.
bsub -Is
To submit a batch interactive job and create a pseudo-terminal with shell mode
support, use the bsub -Is option.
When you specify the -Is option, bsub submits a batch interactive job and
creates a pseudo-terminal with shell mode support when the job starts. This
option should be specified for submitting interactive shells, or applications
which redefine the CTRL-C and CTRL-Z keys (for example, jove).
Example:
% bsub -Is csh
Submits a batch interactive job that starts up csh as an interactive shell.
Submitting an interactive job and redirect streams to files
bsub -i, -o, -e
It is possible to use the -I option together with the -i, -o, and -e options of
bsub to selectively redirect streams to files. For more details, see the bsub(1)
man page.
For example:
% bsub -I -q interactive -e job.err lsmake
Saves the standard error stream in the job.err file, while standard input and
standard output come from the terminal.
