IBM Spectrum LSF multicluster capability job forwarding model

In the job forwarding model, a cluster that is starving for resources sends jobs over to the cluster that has resources to spare.

Queues for the LSF multicluster capability
By default, clusters do not share resources, even if the LSF multicluster capability is installed. To enable job forwarding, enable queues for the LSF multicluster capability in both the submission and execution clusters.

Enable job priority in MultiCluster job forward mode
Enhance fair share calculation to include the job forwarding mode
You can enhance the calculations for the fair share policies to account for the forwarding mode in the LSF multicluster capability, which charges the user priority for each job forwarded, providing a fair opportunity for all users to forward their jobs. This policy charges the priority of the user whose job is successfully forwarded to the remote execution cluster, and restores the charge for the user whose job is returned from the remote execution cluster.
