well, you can use something like:

cluster_add_pathz(NewPath) ->
        %% extract remote all nodes except master
        RemoteNodes = [X || X <- pool:get_nodes(), X =/= node()],
        %% foreach node do proper path loading
        lists:foreach(fun(Node) -> rpc:call(Node, code, add_pathz, [NewPath]). end, RemotesNodes).

where pool:get_nodes can be changes to nodes() when no pool is used...
