HP SVA V2.1 System Administration Guide

A temporary Job Settings File is created when the first get or put command is executed.
Subsequent get and put commands use the temporary Job Settings File until the job resources
are allocated. The temporary Job Settings File is created by reading the sections and tags from
the Site Configuration File to the temporary Job Settings File. Then the User Configuration File
(if one exists) is read and its sections and tag values are written to the temporary Job Settings
File. This can overwrite Site Configuration File values.
When the job resources are allocated, the temporary Job Settings File is copied to the final Job
Settings File, which is identified by the SLURM Job ID. All of the job settings are written to the
Job Settings File as well. Once again, this can overwrite values specified by the Site Configuration
and User Configuration Files. Subsequent get and put commands use the final Job Settings File.
One exception is that if the user is root, svaputdata can change values in the Site Configuration
File.
