    Hello,<br>
    <br>
    Apologies for the delay.<br>
    Thanks for your message. We don't have experience with with systems
    other than LSF. I did talk with some of the developers on the
    project and they suggest that Lava might be sufficient, but as this
    hasn't been tested, we are unsure.<br>
    <br>
    I hope this helps and best of luck with your project.<br>
    <br>
    Regards,<br>
    Giulietta<br>

        <div>Hi All,</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I notice from the file
          ${ENSEMBL_ROOT}/ctrl_scripts/start_server that an LSF
          installation is expected, i.e.:</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div># LOAD LSF ENVIRONMENT - REQUIRED FOR BLAST<br>
          my $cmd = ". /usr/local/lsf/conf/profile.lsf;" if -e
          '/usr/local/lsf/conf/profile.lsf';<br>
        </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I would like to use a different batch system if possible,
          namely Condor, and I notice that there's a company that offers
          such a service commercially, so it should be possible.
          However, I can't find any online resource describing how to
          perform the switch. Does anyone on this list know how to, and
          would they care to share the information?</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Failing that, is Platform Lava (LSF's watered-down free
          version) a suitable alternative?</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>TIA,</div>
        <div>Bob</div>
