SCM polling should not be run on master. First of all, Clearcase view or its config spec can be invalid on master due to different regions/VOB tags. In situation when you have Unix/Windows clients it's quite frequent to have VOBs registered at different VOB tags, since Windows does not allow hierarchical VOB tags (like /vob/vob1). Therefore if the build should be run on Windows, it cannot be polled on Unix since config spec may be invalid (and vice versa).
As a matter of the fact master node is not even required to have Clearcase installed. My Jenkins configuration has a master node with no executors, it only connects to slaves to run the builds. Polling at master would have no sense in this situation.
