Hi Luis, if you need write access to home directories, you should follow similar steps to the ones noted for setting up a swap partition of /tmp. Add a line like this to your /etc/fstab:

/dev/sda3 /home ext4 nodev,nosuid,noexec,noatime 0 2

Bear in mind that files in home directories will only be accessible on the individual node, they will not be accessible between nodes. If you need shared file access between nodes, you could set up a separate NFS directory for /home, and mount that rw. In this case you need to be extremely careful about file locking and write conflicts though.

Hope that helps.
