1. please check pbs services are up and running ps -ef | grep pbs\_ 2. i hope you are running the qmgr command as root user 3. If you see the same error messages while running qmgr , check the server logs , it will mention why it is rejecting source /etc/pbs.conf;cd $PBS\_HOME/server\_logs ; check YYYYMMDD file ---

Please note , qmgr configuration management has to be done by the root user ( manager/operator level users ). Snippet from the PBS Pro Administration guide ( 2021.1) 🙂 ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/pbspro/original/1X/885777d2dcf7949057cac634af03f8f4a0746db7.png) ---

1. > qmgr -c “create node azcos4” 1. How can i check if it is manager/operator level user? I don’t have root user on my machine, i have only 1 user and I use sudo command to use root commands. I tried > sudo qmgr -c “create node azcos4” It returns: sudo: qmgr: command not found Thanks for your time ^^ ---

> [@adarsh](#): > > sudo $PBS\_EXEC/bin/qmgr -c “create node azcos4” Thanks for your time @adarsh. You are right about root user, I used sudo command but i wasn’t root user and I tried last commands you mentioned on message. It didn’t work I solved problem only login as root user. I only used this command **sudo -i** and everything works like a charm ^^
