◆ In the job name, specify the wildcard character (*) at the end of a string, to indicate
all jobs whose name begins with the string. For example, if you use
jobA* as the
job name, it specifies jobs named
jobA, jobA1, jobA_test, jobA.log, etc.
Multiple jobs with the same name
By default, if you use the job name to specify a dependency condition, and more than
one of your jobs has the same name, all of your jobs that have that name must satisfy
the test.
To change this behavior, set JOB_DEP_LAST_SUB in
lsb.params to 1. Then, if
more than one of your jobs has the same name, the test is done on the one submitted
most recently.
