Thank you for sharing the above details @nmazeh

1. You can update your script as below

> #!/bin/bash  
> #PBS -l select=1:ncpus=1  
> #PBS -l walltime=24:00:00  
> #PBS -N Finding\_pi\_serial  
> #PBS -m abe  
> #PBS -M [mazeh01@hotmail.com](mailto:mazeh01@hotmail.com)  
> cd $PBS\_O\_WORKDIR  
> /home/pi/demo/fpi-serial

Quick query:  
0. Please share us the output of these commands

> cat /etc/pbs.conf  
> qstat --version

1. is /home/pi/demo/fpi-serial accessible on Pi01 and Pi02 ? is /home common across PBS Server and PBS Compute nodes ?
2. Please check and share whether the services are running on PBS Server and PBS Compute Nodes by running the below command

> ps -ef | grep pbs\_

> _Please check and share the server / scheduler / comm logs , the tail end of the logs should have some reason for exiting._

Please start the PBS services once more and check systemctl start pbs or /etc/init.d/pbs start

> source /etc/pbs.conf  
> cd $PBS\_HOME/server\_logs # location of pbs server logs  
> cd $PBS\_HOME/sched\_logs # location of pbs sched logs  
> cd $PBS\_HOME/comm\_logs #location of pbs\_comm logs

On the compute node, the mom logs are seen here ( /etc/init.d/pbs start)

> source /etc/pbs.conf  
> cd $PBS\_HOME/mom\_logs #location of PBS MOM logs
