Start the job at a particular time

Hi,

I am new to PBS. How to start the job at a particular time after the first job completes.
I mean, do we have in PBS similar to “#BSUB -b xxxxxxxxxx” which says…
“Dispatches the job for execution on or after the specified date and time”

Regards,
Krish.

qsub -a should do something similar, check out section 2.61.3 of the Ref guide: https://pbsworks.com/pdfs/PBSRefGuide14.2.pdf

Thanks for the reference and clue. I am looking for this only.

Regards,
krish

If you really want one job to start after another, then consider using the afterok job dependency. It’s there to start one job after another one finishes successfully.
