Just to make sure: are you both referring to giving computer file names to the actual log file? Because FFAStrans already logs which computer running each processor node.

I mean neither log section in FFastrans Monitor nor corresponding .cache\monitor\log.txt contains the info. There are only: "Workflow", "Job Start", "Job End", "File" and "Outcome". And no "Node" column with computer name.

Yes, that's correct. And the reason is that in a farming environment, depending on your configuration, there may be several hosts working on the same job. But it might be an idea to have the last host that ends the workflow in a separate column. And this will work for single host environment or farms that has been configured to NOT share nodes within jobs. I'll look into it but it wont be top priority quite yet.

It's useful when something wrong happens, that's why the last node is the node with the error. That is what we need to locate the problem.
