8.1.1. Job Templates

Job Templates define additional inputs and outputs that were not specified by the client at the time of job submission. This enables you to execute customized workflows. For example, you may want to include a custom user-generated results file for retrieval at the end of a job.

RSM job templates are located in the [RSMInstall]\Config\xml directory. Examples of job templates in this directory are GenericJob.xml, Workbench_ANSYSJob.xml, and Workbench_CFXJob.xml.

An example of a job template for a server test job is shown below:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<jobTemplate>
  <script>GenericJobCode.xml</script>
  <debug>FALSE</debug>
  <cleanup>TRUE</cleanup>
  <inputs>
    <file>commands.xml</file>
    <file>*.in</file>
  </inputs>
  <outputs>
    <file>*</file> <!-- automatic outputs -->
    <file special="inquire">*.out</file>
  </outputs>
</jobTemplate>
