I am currently using a cluster that is using TORQUE. Recently when I submit jobs with qsub their status can be checked with qstat but no STDIN.e12345678 or STDIN.o12345678 files can be found (numbers of jobs just examples). Using the qstat -f command showed that the files should be located in my home directory, but they are not there (also not hidden). What could be the problem?

I hope I address the problem to the right Q+A page. In addition I am merely a user without much understanding what the cluster is doing, so please excuse if I use a wrong expression.

  • What directory were you in when you submitted the job? They could be in there. If you use Moab or Maui run 'checkjob -v -v 42'. There could be an error scping the files. – spuder Oct 30 '13 at 00:34
  • @spuder: It's weird - next morning and the thing works again. I used the exact same command from the terminal history! The thing is, that the documentation of the cluster is not really helpful if you are a beginner. So how can I check if I use Moab / Maui? Thank you for your help! – aldorado Oct 30 '13 at 09:04
  • If you use Moab or maui, you will be able to run `checkjob` or `shwoq`. your sys admin should know. – spuder Oct 30 '13 at 13:50
