I am using a Matrix job to have agents sync and processes data every night.

I have the axes configured as so:

<axes>
    <hudson.matrix.LabelAxis>
      <name>nodes</name>
      <values>
        <string>rsmsnbuild120</string>
        <string>rsmsnbuild121</string>
      </values>
    </hudson.matrix.LabelAxis>
  </axes>

The job is configured to use the Static workspace option. Upon the slaves being triggered the root of their clientspecs are changed from c:\path to c:\path\nodes\machinename. And the log prints out syncing using that path. I expect the Static workspace option to not modify my clientspec.
