You may also want to look ino Cabal in Sorcery, allows you to run commands on
any machine you have setup this way (uses SSH to login and send commands).
You
also may want to look into using NFS (or any other networked filesystem) or a
proxy so that all the machines have access to one cache of the binaries (with
this setup, only one machine needs access to /var/spool/sorcery).

Sounds like good work for getting SMGL on clusters, which are easiest when
homogenous.
