I think I was a bit premature with my results. It appears that if the submit file contains error = myjobname.err then a zero-byte "myjobname.err" is created on the submit host automatically (either at the time the job is submitted or when it starts executing, I'm not sure which)
Ah, you're right -- I forgot about that.I guess this would be a reason to use the DAG POST script to clean things up -- it is run on the submit machine after the job runs and everything is transferred back.
