I do remember getting emails (last year?) from running cronjobs on the grid
until I disabled them, iirc it was when they failed, but not necessarily a
description of the error. I literally cannot find any documentation
regarding this anymore so I almost have to think if I didn't imagine this
entire ordeal.
Best,

I think the only way is to have your cronjob do the
emailing of the
output, and then delete (or move) the output file so it's not repeated
on the next run. Something like:
#!/bin/bash
## Call actual job script here.
./do-tool-things.sh
## Email output to maintainers.
echo -e 'Subject: [tools.toolname] Job output\nContent-Type: text/plain;
charset=UTF-8' | cat - /data/project/toolname/cron-tools.jobname.out |
/usr/sbin/exim -odf -i tools.toolname(a)tools.wmflabs.org
## Remove output file.
rm /data/project/toolname/cron-tools.jobname.out
Although of course the details might differ for different tools.

Hello all,
I have a bot at toolforge, running weekly once in cron job using "jsub"
Followed the below link for the setup.

Getting the JOBNAME.out and JOBNAME.err files at the home folder.
Is there any other way like email notification to get alerts, if some
error happens?
I think the files JOBNAME.out and JOBNAME.err will be keep on growing
on the bason host
login.toolforge.org
How to avoid this?
Thanks.
