 ||remote_jobcatalog ||In case of batch jobs running on remote hosts, the job protocol will be put in this folder, and then automatically transferred via scp to the {{{local_jobcatalog}}}. The transfer is done by a separate small batch job, which directives are defined by the {{{BDT:}}} lines. The variable has no default value and must be set by the user. Absolute paths need to be given. Using {{{$HOME}}} is not allowed / does not work. ||no default value ||
 ||local_ip          ||IP-address of your local computer / the computer on which you call the {{{palmrun}}}/{{{palmbuild}}} command. You may use {{{127.0.0.0}}} if you are running PALM in interactive mode or in batch mode on your local computer. The address is only used to identify where to send the output data in case of batch jobs on a remote host. ||no default value ||
+||local_username    ||Your username on the local computer / the computer on which you call the {{{palmrun}}}/{{{palmbuild}}} command. The local username is required for running batch jobs on a remote host in order to allow the batch job to access your local system (e.g. for sending back output data or for automatically starting restart runs). ||no default value ||
+||remote_ip         ||IP-address of the remote system where the batch job shall be started. On large cluster systems this will usually be the address of a login node. Setting this variable in the configuration file will cause {{{palmrun}}} to run in remote batch job mode, i.e. a batch job will be created and send to the remote system automatically without giving {{{palmrun}}}-option {{{-b}}}. ||no default value  ||
+||remote_username   ||Your username on the remote computer that is given by {{{remote_ip}}}. ||no default value ||
