[slurm-users] Reset TMPDIR for All Jobs

[Marcus Wagner]

Hi Erik,

the output of task-prolog is sourced/evaluated (not really sure, how) in 
the job environment.

Thus you don't have to export a variable in task-prolog, but echo the 
export, e.g.

echo export TMPDIR=/scratch/$SLURM_JOB_ID

The variable will then be set in job environment.
