AW: [SCore-users] no output with qsub

[Uwe Der]

Hi,

I'm also not an expert of PBS, but in every job I have submitted to pbs, the
first node specified in your PBS node file (see environment variables) holds
the output in its spool directory 
(for example /usr/spool/PBS/spool/1023.some_server_host_tag.ER and
/usr/spool/PBS/spool/1023.some_server_host_tag.OU)
