LSF bsub SSUSP job stdout

Dear Biostars,

For those familiar with IBM LSF, I am wondering if someone knows how to configure a job, via the job itself or a config file, how to handle stdout when a job enters SSUSP states. As far as I understand my issue, a job will restart from the beginning after entering SSUSP but the stdout is appended and not overwritten. Below is an example of a submission. This happens for a variety of functions regardless of output type (compressed or plain text file)

bsub -R 'span[hosts=1]' -N -o stdout.file myFunction ...
ibm lsf bsub

In my specific case, passing -oo instead of -o was a solution because this overwrites instead of appends the output, however I was not able to address the original issue, will update if I find a work-around...
