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

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

 

John, any plans to fix this before the next release?

 

Thanks,

I'll definitely try to sort this out I'm just doing some other stuff and will try to get that sorted out in the next couple of weeks.
