Just to be sure, when you use --remote-config /root/fio.patch/model,
then it will open /root/fio.patch/model on the s1 machine running fio
--server.

Ran a quick test here, and it seems to work for me. The fio --server
opens the file at the given path, not the client. If you wanted the
client to open it, you'd just do

fio --client 10.61.109.151 /root/fio.patch/model

and it'd do the opposite - load the file on the client side, and send it
to the server.
