Hi Clement,
First, if you run 400 jobs on 16 nodes you will end up with around 32
processes on each nodes. Depending on the memory footprint of the
application it will fail because of memory exhaustion. Usually I am
able to oversubscribe up to 64 NAS class B processes on 2GB, and less

If you're running 400 processes on the same machine, it may well be

Hi,
I have configured out why the tmpdir parameter works for the first
process. I got another problem if I tried to run 400 processes (no

the first process can use my parameter setting to store tmp file, but
the second process used its default setting to store tmp file in /tmp
