We do something similar. At the end of our script pointed to by
EpilogSlurmctld we have
OUT=`scontrol show jobid ${job_id} | awk -F= '/ StdOut/{print $2}'`
if [ ! -f "$OUT" ]; then
exit
fi
printf "\n== Epilog Slurmctld
==================================================\n\n" >> ${OUT}
seff ${SLURM_JOB_ID} >> ${OUT}
printf
"\n======================================================================\n" >>
${OUT}
chown ${user} ${OUT}
Cheers,
Loris
