    Hi,

    just puzzling around with passing environment variables.

    According to HPC MSDN, understanding job and task properties, job variables overwrite system variables.

    Well, no really as I found out: System (workstation node / client) has "Path" being configured.
    Once you add "Path" to xml structure for submission, it'll be changed to "PATH" (after export again)
    and doing a test via "cmd /c set" as task exe, you'll notice both variables next to each other
    and "Path" is being in use.

    Am I doing an error here, or is it a bug from OS or HPC Pack 2016U3?

    Hi ha2ver,

    We noticed the same problem. It is because HPC Pack converts the job env name to upper case by default.

    We will check if we can fix this in the upcoming 2016U3 QFE.

    Cheers,

    That sounds good!

    Additionally, I did some tests on Linux clients: seems like environment vars from jobs are not at all being set.

    We used Ubuntu 14 as clients.

    Hi BR ha2ver,

    I just deployed a HPC Pack 2016 U3 cluster with ubuntu1404 compute nodes by ARM Template, but can't repro it.

    The environment variable could be set successfully.
