Okay! Thanks for the heads-up and re-direct to the proper venue for this question. After I sent my query, I got to thinking that this really wasn't the place for it. As it is, I figured out the answer. Each node name is listed, and the 1-digit number signifies the CPU that is running the job. dave <div>On 12/1/06, Bas van der Vlies <<a href="mailto:basv@sara.nl">basv@sara.nl</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> dave first wrote: > Hey all, I hope someone can help me understand exec_host part of the > qstat -f output. > > Got a 15 node cluster with 4 CPUs per node, nodes are called n01, n02... > n15.
