Currently the largest possible Job ID which PBS can hold is "9999999". Which is a bit low for sites submitting lot of jobs. With new enhancement the largest possible Job ID that PBS would now hold will be "999999999999". Thus the range will be (0 to 999999999999) with a total of 1 trillion unique job IDs.
