Hello all,
I have installed the latest HPC Pack 2012 R2 Update 3 where a new environmental variable is introduced, CCP_NEW_JOB_ID. According to What's New in HPC Pack 2012 R2 Update 3, "CCP_NEW_JOB_ID environment variable for the job
new command. – With this variable you no longer need to parse the command output in your batch scripts".
Until now, I was using the following recipe to submit jobs from batch (job submit Command Reference):
for /f "usebackq tokens=4 delims=. " %%i in (`job new`) do (
job add %%i echo Hello World
job submit /id:%%i
)
This no longer works with the update. I try to use the
CCP_NEW_JOB_ID like so:
job new
job add %CCP_NEW_JOB_ID% echo Hello World
job submit /id:%CCP_NEW_JOB_ID%
What I get is a job configuring with an ID, say 79 on the scheduler, a message saying that CCP_NEW_JOB_ID is set to 79 and the current job submitted as 78, i.e. with the id the environmental variable had before the execution of my batch.
How is the new environmental variable supposed to be used?
Regards,
Costas
