If you wish to submit to lsf using its native commands (bsub) you
can do the following:
bsub -q ${QUEUE} -a openmpi -n ${CPUS} "mpirun.lsf -x PATH -x
LD_LIBRARY_PATH -x MPI_BUFFER_SIZE ${COMMAND} ${OPTIONS}"
It should be noted that in this case you don't call OpenMPI's mpirun
directly but use the mpirun.lsf, a wrapper script provided by LSF.
This wrapper script takes care of setting the necessary environment
variables and eventually calls the correct mpirun. (the option "-a
openmpi" tells LSF that we're using OpenMPI so don't try to
autodetect)
I had forgotten about this.
I should ask my LSF contacts if this method still works with Open MPI
v1.3 (which natively supports LSF), or whether strange / interesting
failures occur because of the integration that mpirun.lsf does ends up
effectively conflicting with what OMPI's mpirun does internally...
