 fio --client=<server1> <job file(s)> --client=<server2> <job file(s)>
 
 
 fio --client=<server1> <job file(s)> --client=<server2> <job file(s)>
 

+If the job file is located on the fio server, then you can tell the server
+to load a local file as well. This is done by using --remote-config:
+
+fio --client=server --remote-config /path/to/file.fio
+
+Then the fio server will open this local (to the server) job file instead
+of being passed one from the client.
