Technical Overview of Windows HPC Server 2008
Because HPC clusters are being adopted by a broad range of mainstream users for mission-critical applications, security and integration with the existing infrastructure are essential. Read this technical overview to learn how Windows HPC Server 2008 uses the Active Directory service to enable role-based security for all cluster jobs and administration.
Windows HPC Server 2008: Using MS-MPI
MPI and MPI2 are widely accepted specifications for managing messaging in high-performance clusters. Among the most widely accepted implementations of Message Passing Interface (MPI) is the open-source Argonne National Laboratory MPICH2 reference implementation. At the API level, MS MPI is identical to the more than 160 APIs implemented by MPICH2. At the same time, MS MPI adds enhanced security and process management capabilities for enterprise environments and a new execution-tracing feature for Windows HPC Server 2008. Read this white paper for more details.
HPC Pack 2008 SDK
Microsoft HPC Server 2008 provides secure, scalable cluster resource management, a job scheduler, and an MPI stack for parallel programming. Download the Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK to get the tools and content necessary to write parallel applications for the Windows HPC Server 2008 platform.
Securing the HPC Session
HPC uses HPC sessions to support the service-oriented architecture (SOA) programming model based on Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). The SOA programming model is ideal for writing interactive, parallel applications that provide near real-time calculation of complex algorithms, such as Monte Carlo simulations and BLAST searches. Read this topic for tips on how to secure the HPC session.

error LNK2001: _CLSID_????

When programming with COM interface, maybe occure a LNK2001 error.
Following code makes a LNK2001 error
HRESULT hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_XXXXX, 0, CLSCTX_ALL, IID_XXXXX, (void**)lpVoid);

An CLSID_XXXXX defined as below.(Pressing F12)
DEFINE_GUID(..., ....)

Compiler makes an error , because compiler does not know where defined DEFINE_GUID is.

So to solve this error, you should include initguid.h header file.
#include <InitGuid.h>
