NAME

LSF - load various LSF modules

SYNOPSIS

use LSF;
use LSF PRINT => 1;

DESCRIPTION

LSF provides a simple mechanism to load some of the LSF modules at one time. Currently this includes:

LSF::Job
LSF::JobInfo
LSF::JobGroup
LSF::Queue
LSF::JobManager

Turning on or off the printing of LSF command line output can be controlled globally via the 'PRINT' directive to the LSF module. Otherwise it can be set individually in each of the LSF modules by using its 'PRINT' directive or by calling its 'print' class method

For more information on any of these modules, please see its respective documentation.

NOTE: FOR THESE MODULES TO WORK IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU INCLUDE THE LSF COMMANDS IN YOUR PATH.

HISTORY

The LSF::Batch module on cpan didn't compile easily on all platforms i wanted. The LSF API didn't seem very perlish either. As a quick fix I knocked these modules together which wrap the LSF command line interface. It was enough for my simple usage. Hopefully they work in a much more perly manner.
