Table 9-2 LSF-HPC Equivalents of SLURM srun Options
LSF-HPC Equivalent Description srun Option
bsub -n num Number of processes (tasks) to run. -n
--ntasks=ntasks
HP XC does not provide this option because the
meaning of this option can be covered by bsub -n
and mincpus=n. Specifies the number of cores per task. Min
processors per node = MAX(ncpus, mincpus) -c
--processors-per-task=ntasks
-ext "SLURM[nodes=minmax]" Specifies the minimum and, optionally,
maximum number of nodes allocated to job. -N
--nodes=min[-max] where minmax is min[-max]
The job allocation will contain at least the
minimum number of nodes.
-ext "SLURM[mincpus=n]" Specifies the minimum number of cores per
node. Min processors per node = MAX(-c
ncpus, --mincpus=n). Default value is 1. --mincpus=n
-ext "SLURM[mem=MB]" Specifies a minimum amount of real memory
of each node. By default, job does not
require -ext. --mem=MB
-ext "SLURM[tmp=MB]" Specifies a minimum amount of temporary
disk space of each node. By default, job
does not require -ext. --tmp=MB
-ext "SLURM[constraint=list]" Specifies a list of constraints. The list may
include multiple features separated by the & -C
--constraint=list
character (meaning ANDed) or the |
(meaning ORed). By default, job does not
require -ext.
-ext "SLURM[nodelist=node1,...nodeN]" Requests a specific list of nodes. The job will
at least contain these nodes. The list may be -w
--nodelist=node1,...nodeN
specified as a comma-separated list of
nodes, or a range of nodes. By default, job
does not require -ext.
-ext "SLURM[exclude=node1,...nodeN]" Requests that a specific list of hosts be
excluded in the resource allocated to this
job. By default, job does not require. -x
--exclude=node1,...nodeN
You cannot use this option. The lsf partition Requests resources from partition
partition
.
-p
--partition=partition
is the only one provided.
-ext "SLURM[contiguous=yes]" Requests a contiguous range of nodes. By
default, job does not require contiguous
nodes. --contiguous
bsub -o output_file Specifies the mode for stdout redirection. -o
--output=file_name
You can use this option when launching parallel tasks. Specify the mode for stdout redirection. -o
--output=none,tasked
bsub -i input_file Specify how stdin is to be redirected. -i
--input=file_name
You can use when launching parallel tasks. Specify how stdin is to be redirected. -i
--input=none,tasked
bsub -e error_file Specify how stderr is to be redirected. -e
--error=file_name
You can use when launching parallel tasks. Specify how stderr is to be redirected. -e
--error=none,tasked
You cannot use this option. When creating allocation.
SLURM sets LSF-HPC job id automatically. Specify a name for the job. -J
--job-name=job_name
