5.12) Standard Output And Standard Error

Output that would normally appear on the screen, cannot be displayed in batch mode. Instead the output is directed to two files:

<scriptname>.e<jobid>: Standard Error
<scriptname>.o<jobid>: Standard Output

So in the above example, the script would generate the files:

example.sh.e10245 - which contains Standard Error.
example.sh.o10245 – which contains Standard Output.

When running a large number of jobs, it can be useful to combine the two files via the qsub flag:

-j y

And the names of the files can be defined or redirected via the qsub flags:

-o <filename>
-e <filename>
