The DArray has been distributed only on the workers. localpart(res) on the
master process returns "0x0 Array{Float64,2}" and hence the BoundsError()
You need to pass the DArray object to dowork. The following will work.
@everywhere function dowork(res)
localpart(res)[1]+=rand()
end
@spawnat 2 dowork(res)
