LSF Post-exec - a way to force it to always run

We have situations where we have jobs that copy a lot of data into a TEMP area. We ask users to have a Post-Exec defined to clean-up/delete this data, and this all works fine, usually.

But sometimes, users have to kill (bkill) their jobs, and in this (and potentially other) scenarios, the Post-Exec is not run .. and the clean-up doesn't happen. This causes issues with other jobs that then land, and find these inconsistent job files

Could we have a flag / config option that we can set (perhaps at a QUEUE level?) that will run Post-Exec on every job, no matter how it ends/gets killed/gets re-queued/etc ?

    Apologies, it seems our previous comments did not get propagated to the external portal.

    The post-exec is always executed for jobs that have started whether they complete, fail or are killed.
    If you are experiencing a situation where this is not the case, please open a PMR with support.
