My cluster name is hptclsf
My master name is lsfhost.localdomain
In this example, hptclsf is the LSF cluster name, and lsfhost.localdomain is the name of the virtual
IP address used by the node where LSF-HPC is installed and running (LSF execution host).
2.4 Getting System Help and Information
In addition to the hardcopy documentation described in the preface of this document (
), the HP XC system also provides system help and information in the form on online manpages.
Manpages provide online reference and command information from the system command line. Manpages
are supplied with the HP XC system for standard HP XC components, Linux user commands, LSF
commands, SLURM commands, and other software components that are distributed with the HP XC
system, such as HP-MPI. Manpages for third-party vendor software components may be provided as a
part of the deliverables for that software component.
To access manpages, type the man command with the name of a command. For example:
$ man sinfo
This command accesses the manpage for the SLURM sinfo command.
If you are unsure of the name of the command that you need to reference, you can enter the man command
with the -k option and a keyword, to get a list of commands that are related to the keyword you entered.
For example:
$ man -k keyword
The MANPATH environment variable is a list of directories that the man command uses to find a manpage.
You may need to add to your MANPATH variable to identify the location of manpages for additional software
packages.
