 Strings in double curly brackets are interpreted as variables and are replaced by {{{palmrun}}} based on settings via specific {{{palmrun}}} options or settings in the environment variable section of the configurations file. From the given batch directives, {{{palmrun}}} generates a batch script (file), also called batch job, which is then submitted to the batch system using the submit command that has been defined by {{{submit_command}}} (see environment variable section above). If you like to check the generated batch script, then run {{{palmrun}}} with additional option {{{-F}}}, which will write the batch script to file {{{jobfile.#####}}} in your current working directory, where {{{#####}}} is a 5-digit random number (which is part of the so-called job-id). A batch job will not be submitted.
 
+In addition to the batch directives, the configuration file requires further information to be set for using the batch system, which is done by adding / modifying variable assignments. A minimum set of variables to be added / modified:
+{{{
+# to be added
+%submit_command      /opt/moab/default/bin/msub -E
+%defaultqueue        small
+%memory              1500
+
+# to be modified
+%local_jobcatalog    /home/username/local_jobcatalog
+%fast_io_catalog     /gfs2/work
+%execute_command     aprun  -n {{mpi_tasks}}  -N {{tasks_per_node}}  ./palm
+}}}
+Given values are just examples! The automatic installer may have already included these variable settings as comment lines (starting with {{{#}}}). Then just remove the {{{#}}} and provide a proper value.

 The following variables are frequently used in batch directives and recognized by {{{palmrun}}} by default:
