Thank you @wakaka .
INT meaning interactive, please correct me if i am wrong again.
To have an interactive log file , the abaqus batch command line is
/opt/software/abaqus/Commands/abq6144 job=inputfile interactive
Without interactive option in the batch command, the below batch command fails
/opt/software/abaqus/Commands/abq6144 job=inputfile cpus=1
You would have to check with the applicaiton vendor - whether it is required to include “interactive” in the abaqus batch command line, while using it with workload managmeent system or queuing systems. It seems form your experiment, it seems interactive is required.
FYI:
With the below PBS attributes in the job script , the stdout/stderr files will be available only after the job has completed (failed or successfully completed/finished)
#PBS -o /absolute/path/to/stdoutlocation
#PBS -e /absolute/path/to/stderrorlocation
If you are using #PBS -koed , make sure the location from which script and inputfile exists is common or shared location across PBS Server and compute nodes and the $PBS_HOME/mom_priv/config has a $usecp attribute with this share location.
