Using bsubargs

To specify a preferred host by name after you have entered Prism in the LSF environment, use the bsubargs command. For example:

(prism all) bsubargs -m argos

To remove any existing bsub options you have specified, issue the command

(prism all) bsubargs off

Within Prism, this removes options you have set via the command line.

Issuing the bsubargs command with no options shows the current bsub options.

The bsubargs command accepts a single string argument. Since this argument is issued within Prism, using the shell-specific syntax appropriate for the -bsubargs option causes errors. Also, each time that you issue the bsubargs command, the previously specified bsub options are replaced. To keep a list of options in effect, you must specify the entire list whenever you change any item in that list.
