Symptoms

Scenario
When using the "Run Script on Host" feature on the GW, the admin may want to only apply the scripts to a few of the SDSs. The operations.log file reports that it runs the script on all the SDSs instead of the selected SDSs.

Symptoms
Below is an example of the scenario:

Node1 = 56.56.56.21, 57.57.57.21
Node2 = 57.57.57.23, 56.56.56.23
Node3 = 57.57.57.22, 56.56.56.22
The Patch_script has only been uploaded to Node1.

Operations.log showing that the Patch_script only exists on Node1:

2021-06-23 15:41:59,312 [scheduler-1] INFO  operations - ValidatePatchScriptExistenceEnd[56.56.56.21, 57.57.57.21]completed{2}{3}{4}{5}{6}{7}{8}{9}{10}{11}{12}{13}{14}{15}{16}{17}{18}{19}{20}{21}

Operations.log incorrectly reporting that the Patch_script was run on Node2 and Node3 while they did not have the Patch_script uploaded:

021-06-23 15:42:16,912 [scheduler-1] INFO  operations - Run patch script on node [57.57.57.22, 56.56.56.22] with timeoutMsec 900,000 has ended with result of completed
