I'm submitting a large-ish job array that might take a few hours to run (but might also fail with an error a few minutes in), and I'd like to get an email when it's done. If I don't set the -oo flag on bsub to a file, it will send me an email when each job in the array is done, but I'd rather not have to count a zillion emails to figure out when the whole array is through.

Is there an option in bsub that will allow me to specify an action to occur when all the jobs are finished, or do I have to hack my way around it in bash?

There's no feature for this exact use case. But you could have a dependent job that does send an email.

bsub -oo ... -J "myArray[1-10]" ...; bsub -w "done(myArray)" ...
