Setting variables exported from submission host with SLURM

Hi, Im a qsub/PBS user who is converting to SLURM and I need help running parallel/multithread jobs.
Specifically I need to know how to set variables. The following does not work...

PHP Code:




sbatch --export=="type=animal,VAR2=valueB" script.sh 
 
sbatch: error: This does not look like a batch script.  The first 
sbatch: error: line must start with #! followed by the path to an interpreter. 
sbatch: error: For instance: #!/bin/sh

I am trying to do this...

PHP Code:




qsub -v type=animal, run=4 script.sh

I would appreciate any help.
Cheers, Lel

Thread is marked as being [SOLVED] and no solution is present.

@OP: Can you provide the solution so that others can also benefit from it?

Taken off the zero-reply list.

The export command was fine... The error was that script.sh must begin with a shebang line.. oops :)

PHP Code:




#!/bin/bash
