The LoadLeveler user may use the resources keyword in the job command file to specify the resources to be consumed by each task of a job step. If the resources keyword is specified in the job command file, it overrides any default_resources specified by the administrator for the job step's class.
For example, the following job requests one CPU and one FRM license for each of its tasks:
resources = ConsumableCpus(1) FRMlicense(1)
If this were specified in a serial job step, one CPU and one FRM license would be consumed while the job step runs. If this were a parallel job step, then the number of CPUs and FRM licenses consumed while the job step runs would depend upon how many tasks were running on each machine. For more information on assigning tasks to nodes, see Task Assignment Considerations.
