INP data drifts

Hello
In my model the pressure changes, I have 20 job with 2o different pressure input which starts from 1 to 60 kpa.
I run the python script and generate the INP files, in those files the pressures are allocated to each INP file is appropriate, but when I submit the job,I understand that it is using the last pressure value (60kpa) as pressure for all INP files, and I get the same results for all of them.
Does anyone have idea what is going on?
Thanks

Do you use scripting parametric study ? If not, this should be the best option in this case. Can you attach your script's code ?
 
Parametric studies can be used to efficiently run multiple analyses that differ only in some input values. To perform such study you have to create a script with psf extension and use *PARAMETER keyword.
 
Thanks
I have used the same concept with Python programming, I have developed a loop and in each loop, the INP is generated.
Hence, I think I am doing the same thing technically.
the INP file is alright after generating it using the script, but then after submitting it, it drifts.
I reckon, there is a problem within the Abaqus.
 
Is there a mechanism in your script to wait submitting the next job until the previous job has finished executing? I would try running one job with your script and a couple after that before trying higher numbers to isolate where the trouble is.

The script just generates INP files, which are ok when I run them one by one, but when I submit all of them, the mentioned problem occurs.
