@Ethanlm I would like to leave you with some thoughts for the future...
maybe you have already thought about it.
You could also consider doing this based on user-defined locality
assignment. Basically let users assign machines/supervisor to locality (just a
number/name) and specify logical distance (just a number) between localities.
Organizations often use naming patterns for their hostnames that help
determine if machines are on same rack or not. So a regex pattern could be used
to specify which (supervisor) hostnames belong to any particular rack/locality.
