Spools a job command file to the directory specified by the JOB_SPOOL_DIR parameter in lsb.params, and uses the spooled file as the command file for the job.
properties, script
By default, the command file is spooled to LSB_SHAREDIR/cluster_name/lsf_cmddir. If the lsf_cmddir directory does not exist, LSF creates it before spooling the file. LSF removes the spooled file when the job completes.
If JOB_SPOOL_DIR is specified, the -Zs option spools the command file to the specified directory and uses the spooled file as the input file for the job.
JOB_SPOOL_DIR can be any valid path up to a maximum length up to 4094 characters on UNIX and Linux or up to 255 characters for Windows.
JOB_SPOOL_DIR must be readable and writable by the job submission user, and it must be shared by the master host and the submission host. If the specified directory is not accessible or does not exist, bsub -Zs cannot write to the default directory LSB_SHAREDIR/cluster_name/lsf_cmddir and the job fails.
The -Zs option is not supported for embedded job commands because LSF is unable to determine the first command to be spooled in an embedded job command.
