Hi Wojtek, It sounds like you have not actually yet successfully connected your jobmanager-pbs with the PBS batch queueing system of your setup.You should recheck the steps in the install guide, paying attention to making sure that app PBS environmental variables are available at the time of installation and to globus installation in the environment of the GRAM job manager when it runs.
Your example of submitting to the fork job manager is doing what one would expect: the fork job manager runs on the gatekeeper node, not on worker nodes, so it will return the results you mention, assuming that a.out returns the hostname. If you want the jobs to run in batch on worker nodes via PBS, you will need to submit to jobmanager-pbs. Hope this helps, at least just a little. Alan (just another user like you!)
