Hi, I am new to PBS Pro and thank you in advance for your help. I run Centos CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908 (Core) and was able to install PBS Pro on both the headnode and the client node using these instructions: > In the head node the /etc/pbs.conf file is: PBS\_SERVER=ip-172-31-46-213 PBS\_START\_SERVER=1 PBS\_START\_SCHED=1 PBS\_START\_COMM=1 PBS\_START\_MOM=0 PBS\_EXEC=/opt/pbs PBS\_HOME=/var/spool/pbs PBS\_CORE\_LIMIT=unlimited PBS\_SCP=/bin/scp and in the client node it is PBS\_SERVER=ip-172-31-46-213 PBS\_START\_SERVER=0 PBS\_START\_SCHED=0 PBS\_START\_COMM=0 PBS\_START\_MOM=1 PBS\_EXEC=/opt/pbs PBS\_HOME=/var/spool/pbs PBS\_CORE\_LIMIT=unlimited PBS\_SCP=/bin/sc Also in client node I have edited sudo cat /var/spool/pbs/mom\_priv/config to give: $clienthost ip-172-31-46-213 $restrict\_user\_maxsysid 999 On the head node I have created sudo cat /var/spool/pbs/server\_priv/nodes ip-172-31-34-69.ec2.internal np=1 On head node the /etc/hosts file is 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 172.31.34.69 ip-172-31-34-69.ec2.internal Now running: $qmgr -c “create node ip-172-31-34-69.ec2.internal” gives me qmgr obj=ip-172-31-34-69.ec2.internal svr=default: Unauthorized Request qmgr: Error (15007) returned from server I have tried $qmgr -c “set server managers+=centos@172-31-46-213” but it gives me: qmgr obj= svr=default: Access from host not allowed, or unknown host qmgr: Error (15008) returned from server Thanks for your help ---

OK, sorry first log on root account and add managers of server: qmgr -c ‘set server managers =root@servername.domain’ To add another user run again with +=user@servername.domain From root account You should be able to run qmgr command.
