Send an email once a job is completed
Hi,
The HPCs I used earlier used PBS (Portable Batch System) to schedule when I was running various jobs and it had an option to send me an email once a job is completed.
I'm wondering whether this is possible for any other process (without the use of PBS). For example, I'm running some codes on my computer from the terminal and it takes about a day or two to run, but I want to receive an email when the job is completed.
Thanks.

qrun(8B) PBS qrun(8B)
NAME
qrun - run a pbs batch job
SYNOPSIS
qrun [-a] [-H host] job_identifier ...
DESCRIPTION
The qrun command is used to force a batch server to initiate the execution of a batch job. The job is run regardless of scheduling posi-
tion, resource requirements, or state.
In order to execute qrun, the user must have PBS Operation or Manager privilege.
OPTIONS
-a Specifies the job(s) is to be run asynchronously.
-H host Specifies the host within the cluster on which the job(s) are to be run. The host argument is the name of a host that is a
member of the cluster of hosts managed by the server. If the option is not specified, the server will select the "worst
possible" host on which to execute the job.
OPERANDS
The qrun command accepts one or more job_identifier operands of the form:
sequence_number[.server_name][@server]
STANDARD ERROR
The qrun command will write a diagnostic message to standard error for each error occurrence.
EXIT STATUS
Upon successful processing of all the operands presented to the qrun command, the exit status will be a value of zero.
If the qrun command fails to process any operand, the command exits with a value greater than zero.
