Hello everyone, when I use rsubmit to run codes on a remote server. sometimes I also want to set some options in the server,like: rsubmit; options error=17; endrsubmit; My question is how long the options could last/exist in the remote server? whether the options will always exist until signal-off from the remoter server? and before signal-off, whether I could submit many different codes on the remote server use the same option? Thanks. Mike ... View more
