The result is the same whichever order the nodes are present in the list.
What exactly is Charmrun waiting for at the "Waiting for 0-th client
to connect." stage? Presumably the 0th client is the first in
nodelist, and that a process is supposed to start on that node, then
"connect" to Charmrun on the host machine?
Using the command top I see no evidence of anything new starting on
the node, despite all the "starting node-program" and "rsh phase
successful" messages that are output.
Using "ps -u douglas" on the node shows a whole bunch of tcsh and sh
shells and sleep processes starting then dying but nothing else.
What does the line "Sending "0 129.215.237.187 57453 26737 0" to
client 0" mean? How is this "sending" achieved? I see "port 57453" is
mentioned in the output ...
