Submitting Parallel Jobs<br />

Submitting Parallel Jobs<br />

<strong>LSF</strong> can allocate more than one host or processor to run a job and automatically<br />

keeps track of the job status, while a parallel job is running.<br />

Specifying the number of processors<br />

When submitting a parallel job that requires multiple processors, you can<br />

specify the exact number of processors to use.<br />

To submit a parallel job, use bsub -n and specify multiple processors.<br />

Example<br />

% bsub -n 4 myjob<br />

This command submits myjob as a parallel job. The job is started when 4 job<br />

slots are available.<br />
