Basically cluster_info only gets added to each node by vcld if there is an image with subimages defined. Sorry is the first time I am instaling a HPC enviroment, if you have a good guide let me know:) An HPC environment is typically using a parallel batch processing job scheduler, like LSF (Load Sharing Facility), or MOAB for commercial schedulers, open-src schedulers Condor, Maui, Torque. Here is a link for overviews: http://hpc-opinion.blogspot.com/2011/07/job-schedulers-overview.html So you may want to check out each of those related sites for guides, etc. We use LSF here at NCSU with ~850 nodes. As far as clusters within VCL, one could really build anything, but what we've seen the most are researchers building hadoop clusters, a distributed LAMP stack for a class, or SAS BI environment.

We have several hadoop clusters here at NCSU using this method, it's simple but seems to work well. In the future we would be better served using configuration managers like puppet, chef, bcfg2, etc. (We should put this on the roadmap.. :) ) Hope this helps.
