it's the result of your job. Something like:

#!/bin/sh
exit 1

will produce it. From SGE's point of view the job ran successfully. Whether there is any application error because of wrong input data or whatever it can't decide.

NB: There are two special error codes which the user can use to trigger a special behavior in SGE: a job exiting with 99 will be rescheduled and with 100 set to application error.
