Hi ,

normally, the job id 's format is .

for example. 111.hostA

is there any to change the value of hostA? I do not want to let user know the master name.

Thanks

In /etc/hosts of the master node and all the compute nodes, create an alias for the master node.
Please note and make sure name resolution ( reverse address resolution ) works.

cat /etc/hosts | grep hostA
192.168.0.101 . hostA.domain.com . hostA myhpc

edit /etc/pbs.conf (on the PBS Server host and update the below line)
PBS_SERVER=myhpc

Restart the pbs services

[ Note the job id will be . 100.myhpc from now on ]

Hope this helps
