May be some aspects outside of slurms control that are tied to the
machine you are using which require a specific way of handling
environment variables. You might try the following:
#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --job-name=my_job
#SBATCH —time=01:00:00
for A in 1 2
do
time ./my_code.o -a ${A}
done

If you’re literally putting spaces around the ‘=‘ character, I don’t think
that’s valid shell syntax, and should throw errors into your slurm-JOBID.out
file when you try it.
See if it works with A=1.0 instead of A = 1.0

Dear all,
I would like to use a variable within a slurm script as shown in the following
minimal working example. I want to define a variable A, assign a value to it,
and run multiple times a code where I use A in a command-line flag:
#!/bin/sh
#SBATCH --job-name=my_job
#SBATCH —time=01:00:00
A = 1.0;
time ./my_code.o -a $A
A = 2.0;
time ./my_code.o -a $A
However, this does not work. Do you know a way around this?
Best,
M
