3.5. Setting Up Job Directories and File Transfers

When setting up an RSM job in a client application, a working directory is created to capture the necessary job input files before the job is submitted. Settings in client applications enable you to specify where job working directories are created.

The files in the working directory must be made accessible to the HPC resource. You can accomplish this in one of two ways:

  • In the client application, specify that working directories should be created under a shared HPC directory.

  • Make it possible for files to be transferred from the working directory to a shared HPC directory.

You must also specify the file transfer method that you want to use on the File Management tab of an RSM configuration (see Specifying File Management Properties).
