I’d like to have my job’s output sent to a directory named something like:
 
/opt/jobs/output/jobname/year/month/day

I would say it should work according to the documentation of Meta-Data on page 49 of the Reference Manual, but it doesn't:

$ gbch-r -I '>`date +/tmp/%Y/%m/%d/`%d1' test.sh

The part `date +/tmp/%Y/%m/%d/` should be computed at runtime, but instead it tries to write to:

Cannot open file `date +/tmp/%Y/%m/%d/`24830 - No such file or directory

NB: The directory structure I also created beforehand, I also tried to use %% which is correctly replaced by a single % by gnubatch.

Any way to do this with +input-output? If not, could we make it a feature request for the new version?
 
Thanks,

That's funny it always used to work I must have broken it somehow.
