Hi Mark,<br>
<br>
    Usually the channel index error is not actor related. It could
be some error in workflow.<br>
<br>
    Which Kepler version you are using? I can send you a demo
workflow to deploy jobs to remote machine. I think SSH Execute cmd
actor is not the only option. Or I can have a look at your workflow
if you want. <br>
