A technique includes a first compute node of a cluster of nodes receiving a communication from a cluster maintenance node of the cluster instructing the first compute node to provide an installation image that is received by the first compute node to a second compute node of the cluster. The first node and the second node are peers. The technique includes sharing the first installation stream that communicates the image to the first compute node. Sharing the first installation stream includes, while the first compute node is receiving the first installation stream, the first compute node providing a second installation stream to communicate parts of the image received via the first installation stream to the second compute node.
