When hundreds of tiny/frequent jobs must be managed on a single system, it may be more efficient not to let ecFlow server create each instance of a job, and to avoid queuing system submission. ecFlow can still be used for monitoring only purpose.
Provided ECF_NAME, ECF_HOST, ECF_PORT, ECF_PASS=FREE are defined and they match a node on a suite hosted by the server.
When ECF_TRYNO=0 and ECF_JOBOUT match the job output, output can be directly accessible from the GUI, too.
The suite/family "looks like" suspended.
