There are a number of cluster commands that allow performing operations on all cluster nodes at once, e.g. cexec, as in cexec mkdir /scratch/something.
How can I change the password on all nodes at once for a user?

That's a good reason why admins use LDAP or Kerberos. – Jeight Feb 25 '16 at 18:06

This should work:
for i in serverlist;do
ssh $i "usermod --password $(echo my_new_password | openssl passwd -1 -stdin) USERNAME"
done
usermod doesn't prompt but the password needs to be encrypted first.

Seems to work as root. If I try it as regular user, I get in trouble with permissions. – Magicsowon Feb 26 '16 at 10:36
