[Aces-support] Modules not loading in script submission to acesgrid

[William Boos]

hi daniel,
i have had a similar problem on geo, and found that a workaround there is to
submit the batch job from a compute node, rather than the head node, using
qsub -V  (though I'm not sure if the -V is needed).

Subject: [Aces-support] Modules not loading in script submission to acesgrid

I have a script for PBS submission that opens with:

#! /usr/bin/env bash

#PBS -N EarthCplC
#PBS -q long
#PBS -V
#PBS -l nodes=8,walltime=12:00:00

# ITRDA specific calls:
. /etc/profile.d/modules.sh
module list
module add mpich/intel
module add python-ext
module list
...

When I submit it in interactive more (qsub -I -l nodes=8; ./qsub [script
name]), all is well.  When I submit in batch mode (qsub [script name]) it
crashes and I get the attached message (below) in the error file.  Why will
the modules not load in batch submission more for me?  Any idea or
suggestions would be very welcome!

Thanks,
Daniel
