You're right, this isn't in dagman.out.

But it is in the user log file for the job.  If you're running a fairly 
recent DAGMan (7.9 something or later) you'll get a file called 
*.dag.nodes.log (unless you've changed the default settings).  That file 
will have events for all of your node jobs, including execute events 
which have the IP address of the execute host.

If you specify 'log = ...' in your submit files, you can also see the same 
events in those files.

If you're running an older dagman you most likely won't get the 
.dag.nodes.log file, but you'll still have the individual logs specified 
in the submit files.
