Thanks Lorenzo,

I found a easy solution.

Basically it is to use -i tag of LSF rather than use -in tag for pw, 
bands, pp, etc. This also works for gipaw.

Maybe this can be added as another note in the user guide for people 
have to struggle with the input redirection.

This works for me with mpi+lsf system
