NAME

6       nqs2pbs - convert NQS job scripts to PBS
7

SYNOPSIS

9       nqs2pbs nqs_script [pbs_script]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This  utility  converts  a existing NQS job script to work with PBS and
13       NQS.  The existing script is copied and  PBS  directives,  #PBS  ,  are
14       inserted  prior  to  each  NQS directive #QSUB or #@$ , in the original
15       script.
16
17       Certain NQS date specification and options are not supported by PBS.  A
18       warning  message  will be displayed indicating the problem and the line
19       of the script on which it occurred.
20
21       If any unrecognizable NQS directives are encountered, an error  message
22       is displayed.  The new PBS script will be deleted if any errors occur.
23

OPERANDS

25       nqs_script
26              Specifies the file name of the NQS script to convert.  This file
27              is not changed.
28
29       pbs_script
30              If specified, it is the name of the new  PBS  script.    If  not
31              specified, the new file name is nqs_script.new .
32

NOTES

34       Converting  NQS  date  specifications  to  the PBS form may result in a
35       warning message and an incompleted converted date.  PBS does  not  sup‐
36       port  date  specifications  of  "today", "tomorrow", or the name of the
37       days of the week such as "Monday".  If any of these are encountered  in
38       a  script,  the PBS specification will contain only the time portion of
39       the NQS specification, i.e. #PBS -a hhmm[.ss].   It is  suggested  that
40       you  specify the execution time on the qsub command line rather than in
41       the script.
42
43       Note that PBS will interpret a time specification without a date in the
44       following way:
45
46       -  If  the time specified has not yet been reached, the job will become
47          eligible to run at that time today.
48
49       -  If the specified time has already passed when the job is  submitted,
50          the job will become eligible to run at that time tomorrow.
51
52       PBS  does  not  support  time zone identifiers.  All times are taken as
53       local time.
