Abhishek, You are correct that you can modify your workload trace to clear out the job hostlists manually. With Moab, it may be easier to specify the parameter 'SIMFLAGS IGNHOSTLIST' see
http://clusterresources.com/moabdocs/a.fparameters.shtml#simflags Also, setting the parameter SIMPURGEBLOCKEDJOBS may be helpful, see http://clusterresources.com/moabdocs/a.fparameters.shtml#simpurgeblockedjobs Please let us know if you could use further assistance.
