    <p>Hello,</p>
    <p>the script you attached has unfortunately been stripped off by
      the antispam/antivirus system of my mail service. However, I can
      see from the output that you are using "rsync" to copy files back
      and forward, my guess is that you're not copying all the files.</p>
    <p>The computing center administrator often recommends to use
      baroque scripts that data, and sometimes even the executables,
      back and forward. My recommendation is to set "outdir" to the fast
      scratch space, but run the codes directly from the permanent
      "work" or "home" space, thus avoiding the need to copy.</p>
