We have recently migrated our cluster (21 multicore blades) to oneSIS:
http://onesis.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OneSIS
I can now edit the master (say, to install new RPMs) and it is visible
in real-time
since the blades use a ram disk approach. A few directories are excluded
from the shared part to allow for "personal" data on each blade, i.e. to avoid
that log files or daemons interfere.
Pretty happy with that installation.
