The forum can be found here.
Interface 1: New mail_option 'j' in 'qsub -m'
- Visibility: Public
- Change Control: Stable
- Synopsis: When a job is submitted with '-m jabe', the subjobs of arrayjob send e-mails
- Details: The new mail option 'j' allows to send e-mails concerning subjob states. This new option is meaningful only with arrayjob. The e-mail format is equal to the e-mail format of any other job. The mail option 'j' must be combined with 'abe'. If the mail option 'j' is alone then 'illegal -m value' is returned. New mail option 'j' can be displayed by 'qstat -f' in the 'Mail_Points' attribute. Abort e-mails for subjobs of array job are supported but abort e-mails for subjobs are not sent by default (opposite to regular jobs). The '-ja' mail option must be supplied for receiving subjob abort e-mails.
Interface 2: New qsub error message "qsub: mail option 'j' can not be used without array job"
- Visibility: Public
- Change Control: Stable
- Details: If the user requests mail option 'j' for non array job then this error message is printed on stderr and qsub fails.
Interface 3: New e-mail on parent array job start
- Visibility: Public
- Change Control: Stable
- Synopsis: If arrayjob is submitted with qsub -m b, the e-mail is sent once the parent job begins.
- Details: This e-mail is sent regardless the presence of 'j' mail point.
- E-mail example: subject: PBS JOB 1[].servername
PBS Job Id: 1[].servername Job Name: STDIN Begun execution
Interface 4: New e-mail on parent array job termination
- Visibility: Public
- Change Control: Stable
- Synopsis: If arrayjob is submitted with qsub -m e, the e-mail is sent once the parent job terminates.
- Details: This e-mail is sent regardless the presence of 'j' mail point.
- E-mail example: subject: PBS JOB 1[].servername
PBS Job Id: 1[].servername Job Name: STDIN Execution terminated Exit_status=0
Notice: The abort e-mail for parent array job is not supported yet. The mail option (qsub -J range -m a) is allowed and no error is shown.
