Add a RunBeforeJob to ping the hosts and only proceed if they're 
available.

Something like "If {ping -i10 -c3}" is usually enough.

Machines which don't respond to ping will have to have some other form of 
"Are you there?" done. The point is that it's an error condition you can 
test for and abort on before the job itself starts.
