Thanks for the quick response.

I did a bit more digging and figured out the actual problem. I am using 
Condor only for submitting jobs to Grid and it seems that grid universe 
(grid_type gt2) does not support the substitution.

Here is my job:
-----
Executable=/bin/hostname
TransferExecutable = False
Log=condorG.log
Output=hostname.gt2.$$([$(Process)+100]).out
Error=hostname.gt2.$$([$(Process)+100]).err
skip_filechecks = True
universe=grid
grid_resource = gt2 ce.cro-ngi.hr/jobmanager-maui
queue
-----

After submission I find in condorG.log:
-----
018 (010.000.000) 12/16 11:37:28 Globus job submission failed!
    Reason: 48 the provided RSL could not be properly parsed
-----

Finally in the Globus log on the target machine I found that 
substitution is not done:
-----
&(rsl_substitution=(GRIDMANAGER_GASS_URL 
https://ha.cro-ngi.hr:20886))(executable='/bin/hostname')(scratchdir='')(directory=$(SCRATCH_DIRECTORY))(stdout=$(GLOBUS_CACHED_STDOUT))(stderr=$(GLOBUS_CACHED_STDERR))(file_stage_out=($(GLOBUS_CACHED_STDOUT) 
$(GRIDMANAGER_GASS_URL)#'/home/eimamagi/hostname.gt2.$'#$([0+100])#'.out')($(GLOBUS_CACHED_STDERR) 
$(GRIDMANAGER_GASS_URL)#'/home/eimamagi/hostname.gt2.$'#$([0+100])#'.err'))(proxy_timeout=240)(save_state=yes)(two_phase=3600)(remote_io_url=$(GRIDMANAGER_GASS_URL))
-----

Cheers
