All LSF software requires a license. Some LSF features are enabled by the license file alone, but other products must also be included in the cluster configuration file. However, if you already have the FEATURE line in your license file, you can install or enable the corresponding products later on.
The following strings are examples of what can be listed in the PRODUCTS line in the Parameters section of the lsf.cluster.cluster_name file, to indicate which LSF products that the cluster should run. This is not a comprehensive list of Platform product license names. Any valid Platform LSF license product name can be on the PRODUCTS line, according to which Platform products you've purchased:
If these products are listed in the cluster configuration, the LSF license must also include FEATURE lines for these products.
In addition, there are some “extra” licensed features that do not have a matching item in the PRODUCTS line. Do not remove features from your license unless instructed to do so by Platform. For example, the following string is valid in the license file, but should not be used in the PRODUCTS line:
LSF client hosts are licensed per host, not per core, so there is no difference between licensing a single-processor host and a multi-processor host.
