NAME

       opasorthosts

       Sorts  its standard input in a typical host name order and sorts to standard output. Hosts
       are sorted alphabetically (case-insensitively)  by  any  alpha-numeric  prefix,  and  then
       sorted  numerically by any numeric suffix. Host names may end in a numeric field which may
       optionally have leading zeros. Unlike a pure alphabetic  sort,  this  command  results  in
       intuitive sequencing of host names such as: host1, host2, host10.

       This command does not remove duplicates; any duplicates are listed in adjacent lines.

       Use this command to build mpi_hosts input files for applications or cable tests that place
       hosts in order by name.
