When you submit an LSF job, you must reserve the license with the resource requirement usage section (bsub -R "rusage..." option).
You cannot successfully reserve a license by running bsub -R "select".
Specify the license token name (same as specifying a shared resource).
If you use project mode, specify a license project name with the bsub -Lp option.
If you also have LSF_LIC_SCHED_STRICT_PROJECT_NAME=y in lsf.conf and without configuring a default project for the required feature, the job is rejected.
Use the blstat command to view information about the default license project.
Update resource requirements.
If your queue or job starter scripts request a license that is managed by an LSF ELIM, you must update the job submission scripts to request that license that uses the license token name.
Examples:
bsub -R "rusage[AppB=1]" -Lp Lp1 myjob
This command submits a job named myjob to license project Lp1 and requests one AppB license
bsub -R "rusage[AppC=1]" myjob
This command submits a job named myjob and requests one AppC license.
