 > The exclusive part should probably be configurable as it's not mandatory, but on our cluster the default is that GPUs are shared, so we recommend our users to request them exclusively.

 Proposed design: 

 Add new option "LSF.BsubCUDAArguments".    It is appended to the end of "BsubArgumentsList" when CUDA.DeviceCount > 0 in the container runtime constraints.    Introduce a new template variable %G with for the value of DeviceCount. 

 Example: 

 BsubCUDAArguments: ["-gpu", "num=%G:j_exclusive=yes"]
