Each project defined in a Projects section of lsf.licensescheduler can have a distribution policy applied in the Feature section, where projects can be associated with license features.
The higher the number, the higher the priority. When 2 projects have the same priority number configured, the first listed project has a higher priority. Priority is taken into account when license preemption occurs, where lower priority projects are prempted first.
If not explicitly configured, the default project has the priority of 0. A default project is used when no license project is specified during job submission.
A service domain is a group of one or more FlexNet license servers. Platform License Scheduler manages the scheduling of the license tokens, but the license server actually supplies the licenses. You must configure at least one service domain for Platform License Scheduler.
In project mode, each cluster can access licenses from multiple WAN and LAN service domains. Platform License Scheduler collects license availability and usage from FlexNet license server hosts, and merges this with license demand and usage information from LSF clusters to make distribution and preemption decisions.
Unless you require multiple service domains for some specific reason, we recommend configuring both modes with at most one LAN and one WAN for each feature in a cluster. Because Platform License Scheduler does not control license checkout, running with one cluster accessing multiple service domains is not optimal.
