Error Running Rally against an existing cluster

Hi,

I'm having trouble starting Rally to run against an existing Elasticsearch cluster from Mac OSX Catalina. I followed the instructions here

However when I run using the command:

esrally --track=pmc --target-hosts=[my-es-cluster]:9200 --pipeline=benchmark-only --client-options="use_ssl:true,verify_certs:true,basic_auth_user:'elastic',basic_auth_password:'[password]'"

I've tried pointing to my local dev ES and also at a Elastic Cloud instance but get the same error that is seemingly about the Agent not being able to start.

Looks like your issue begins with this error here:

Perhaps macos - OSX: ssh: Could not resolve hostname: nodename nor servname provided, or not known - Super User might be of assistance?
