Re: [slurm-users] Reset TMPDIR for All Jobs

[Marcus Wagner]

Hi Erik,






echo export TMPDIR=/scratch/$SLURM_JOB_ID

The variable will then be set in job environment.

the output of task-prolog is sourced/evaluated (not really sure, how) in the job environment. Thus you don't have to export a variable in task-prolog, but echo the export, e.g.

I was wanted to set TMPDIR from /tmp to a per job directory I create in local /scratch/$SLURM_JOB_ID (for example)

This bug suggests I should be able to do this in a task-prolog.

unset TMPDIR

export TMPDIR=/scratch/$SLURM_JOB_ID

It does work if it is done in the job script, rather than the task-prolog.

Am I missing something?

However adding the following to task-prolog doesn’t seem to affect the variables the job script is running with.
