One way I?m using to work around this is to inject a long random string into the ?comment option. Then, if I see the socket timeout, I use squeue to look for that job and retrieve its ID. It?s not ideal, but it can work.
I would have expected a different approach: use a unique string for the jobname, and always verify after submission. after all, squeue provides a --name parameter for this (efficient query by logical job "identity"). regards, mark hahn.
