 By default the output is placed in a file named "slurm-", suffixed with the job ID number and ".out", ''e.g.'' <code>slurm-123456.out</code>, in the directory from which the job was submitted.
-You can use <code>--output</code> to specify a different name or location.
+Having the job ID as part of the file name is convenient for troubleshooting.
-Certain replacement symbols can be used in the filename, ''e.g.'' <code>%j</code> will be replaced
-by the job ID number. See [https://slurm.schedmd.com/sbatch.html sbatch] for a complete list.

+A different name or location can be specified if your workflow requires it by using the <code>--output</code> directive.
-The following sample script sets a ''job name'' (which appears in <code>squeue</code> output) and sends the output to a file with a name constructed from the job name (%x) and the job ID number (%j).
+Certain replacement symbols can be used in a filename specified this way, such as the job ID number, the job name, or the [[Job arrays|job array]] task ID.
+See the [https://slurm.schedmd.com/sbatch.html vendor documentation on sbatch] for a complete list of replacement symbols and some examples of their use.
