Features Benefits
A hierarchal, personal scheduling paradigm. Off-load the LSF master scheduler by delegating the scheduling decisions of short duration jobs
  • Dramatic increases in job throughput
  • Increased overall system performance and cluster utilization
  • Very low latency per job
  • Resource accounting for everything run through the SS is collected and appears in normal LSF accounting files
  • Two-tier scheduling – preserves existing job semantics
  • The session scheduler essentially gives users their own personal cluster so that they do not need to deal with long dispatch times for ad-hoc job submissions on an otherwise busy cluster
  • Superior management of related tasks
