I expect this should be possible in the same way as on any other 
cluster type, nothing special. But it will probably run slower (how 
much?) than on a cluster with local disks, as your large temporary 
files will have to be written on the central disk, causing lots of 
network traffic (however, such a cluster will probably have a fast 
network).
