You probably know this, but bsub is the submission command for the

Well, please do not overestimate my knowledge. I did not worked with
clusters so far.
It is what the Ensembl
team use internally for batch submission.
Iven in this case the script looks somehow suspicious.
My point is that there are many utility scripts ( like
ensembl-variation/scripts/import/run.me ) hanging about in the
ensembl code that are not needed at all in order to have a fully
functioning website and API code. They are only used internally by
the Ensembl team as they develop new data for a new release. As they
are only intended for internal use they tend to be very tied to the
exact platform they develop on ( in this case LSF, with perl in
/usr/local/ensembl/bin/perl and a shared dir on /ecs2/scratch3/ ).
My suggestion is that we just ignore this script as it is not needed
for Ensembl to run.
Thanks for the hint. Could you spot more such stuff which is not
needed to run?
