  Will make devices on the remote host available to use. Note that calling this

  Using the default job_name of worker, you can schedule ops to run remotely as
  follows:
  ```python
  # Enable eager execution, and connect to the remote host.
  tf.compat.v1.enable_eager_execution()
  tf.contrib.eager.connect_to_remote_host("exampleaddr.com:9876")

  with ops.device("job:worker/replica:0/task:1/device:CPU:0"):
    # The following tensors should be resident on the remote device, and the op
    # will also execute remotely.
    x1 = array_ops.ones([2, 2])
    x2 = array_ops.ones([2, 2])
