HDAProcessor works well once the File Dependencies have been added. Output path of $PDG_DIR gets converted to __PDG_DIR__ which gets replaced on the local client machine to the correct shared directory set up in the hqueue_scheduler node.
However, ROP Geometry Output does not work that way. The HQClient does not have the __PDG_DIR__ environment variable and instead the output path needs to be $HIP/geo/something.`@pdg_index`.bgeo.sc. This is quite confusing. Screenshots to illustrate this:
which results in the following client error message:
I presume it should be fairly straight forward to set the environment variable or at least provide some debug output in pdgcmd.py that the environment variable is not set.
