  • Submit a job to the remote machine either from the GUI or Command Line.
  • GUI will show list of submitted jobs both from GUI and CLI.
  • When a job is submitted to remote machine, remote machine will generate a JobID with pattern <number>.<remote server name>
  • The JobID will be shown in the log file that opens in the GUI after the job is submitted and will be displayed in the screen output in the Command Line.
  • Remote Jobs form GUI will show the list of jobs submitted with more details, which includes JobID.

    This is useful when writing a script wrapper around the ACC batch mode.
    ACC <input file> -remote <remote server name> <arguments>
ACC <input file> -remote <remote server name> -pbscpu <value> -pbsmem <value> 
-pbschunks <value> <arguments>
    Note: The definition of the remote server cannot be created in the command mode – only from GUI application.
