How to use BOBJ Server Groups when 360Eyes is installed in a clustered BOBJ environment

Symptom

In the case not all node members contain the 360Eyes folder, when running the 360Eyes jobs, you will be presented with the following error: 

The program failed to run and supplied the following information: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.gbs.eyes.LaunchBOBJHandler

This is due to the job not having access to the required dependencies (i.e. 360Eyes.key, 360eyes.param file, libs, tools) contained in the 360Eyes folder.
