Whether to distribute builds to the machines listed in
<option>nix.buildMachines</option>.
If you know that the <option>buildMachines</buildMachines> are not
always available either use nixos
<command>nixos-rebuild --no-build-hook</command>
or consider managing <filename>/etc/nix.machines</filename> manually
by setting <option>manualNixMachines</option>. Then you can comment
unavailable buildmachines.
