If you haven't tried the clusrun script that comes with the CCS install yet, you are missing out. This script comes in handy in so many ways. Simply call clusrun with the command you want run on the remote nodes.

 

Want to copy a file to/from all nodes in the cluster? - clusrun

Want to make a registry change to all nodes in the cluster? - clusrun

Want to execute a program on all running nodes in a cluster? - clusrun.

 

Of course, you can do all the things you can do through a job submit, e.g. choose a remote scheduler, filter nodes by state, give username/pwd, redirect stdout, etc. but, clusrun makes it easy to do from the cmd line.

 

If you are administering a CCS cluster, you need to know how to use clusrun. You can find it in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Compute Cluster Pack\Bin.
