The problem
I am trying to set up Grid for running automation on multiple devices both android and IOS. When I run the automation, the test is executed on the device which is specified in the capability. But when I look at the hub log, there is a difference in the selection of the node, where, the node requested and the one assigned are different. Please look at the logs for more details. Do let me know if there are any more configurations that needs to be added.
Expected behaviour
Select the test slot for the node specified
Actual behaviour
Any available node is selected
Environment

Last Appium version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable):
