 ||source_path       ||Path to PALM's FORTRAN source files. This is the place where the automatic installer has put the download, or which has been defined in the user's {{{svn checkout}}} command. ||$HOME/palm/current_version/trunk/SOURCE ||
 ||user_source_path  ||Path to the [wiki:doc/app/userint user interface routines]. The variable {{{jobname}}} that is used in the default path is replaced by the argument given with {{{palmrun}}}-option {{{-d}}}. ||$base_directory/JOBS/$jobname/USER_CODE ||
+||fast_io_catalog   ||Path to a file system with fast discs (if available). This folder is used so store the temporary catalog generated by {{{palmrun}}} during each run. It should also be used to store large I/O files (e.g. restart data or 3D-output) in order to reduce I/O time. This variable is used in the default {{{.palm.iofiles}}} for the restart data files. The folder must be accessible from all compute nodes, i.e. it must reside in a global file system. WARNING: {{{/tmp}}} will only work on single node systems! In case of batch jobs on remote hosts, the variable refers to a folder on the remote host. The variable has no default value and must be set by the user. ||no default value || 
+||local_jobcatalog  ||Folder on the local host to store the batch job protocols. In case of batch jobs running on remote hosts, the job protocol will be created on the {{{remote_jobcatalog}}} and then be transferred via scp to the {{{local_jobcatalog}}}. ||$HOME/job_queue ||
