To configure user-assigned job priority edit lsb.params and define MAX_USER_PRIORITY. This configuration applies to all queues in your cluster.
MAX_USER_PRIORITY=max_priority
Where:
max_priority
Specifies the maximum priority a user can assign to a job. Valid values are positive integers. Larger values represent higher priority; 1 is the lowest.
LSF and queue administrators can assign priority beyond max_priority for jobs they own.
Use bparamsĀ -l to display the value of MAX_USER_PRIORITY.
Example
MAX_USER_PRIORITY=100
Specifies that 100 is the maximum job priority that can be specified by a user.
