Error: Name or service not known

I am attempting to write a sequencer to execute a shell script on a compute node of our grid. I execute the sequencer.sh in the first stage and then parse the name of the selected compute node with:
Field(sequencer_sh.$CommandOutput," ", 1) in a user variable activity stage. Finally in another execute command activity I issue the following:
ssh #UserVariables_Activity_20.server# #DI_Project_Directory_PSet.$DI_Script_Dir_Parm#/#ScriptName#

ScriptName being the name of the script that I want to exeute on the compute node.
The command as resolved is:
ssh server03-prv: /...path/script/test.sh

I am receiving the following error at run time:
sh: server03-prv:: Name or service not known

Where is that : (colon) coming from? and how do I get rid of it?

Thanks,

Any other job in the job sequence?

No other jobs in the sequence. But, I solved the problem.

I finally opened my eyes and noticed that the colon was part of the output string from the sequencer.sh script. So, I just changed the delimiter in the FIELD command I was using to parse out the 3 values from a space to a colon and ..... voila!

That's what I get for copying things exactly out of the Redbook.

Well done on the sharp eyesight!

Honestly, it had more to do with increasing the font size on the monitor than it did with "sharp eyesight"
