    platform list nodes --state New
  3. Choose a System ID to deploy a single chassis using a command like the following:

The CLI parses the uploaded configuration file for changes to make to Platform.

If Swarm was running during the upload, Platform Server attempts to communicate the new configuration to Swarm if Swarm was running during the upload. Any settings that cannot be communicated to Swarm requires a reboot of the Swarm cluster in order to take effect. For each setting contained in the file, the The CLI indicates if the setting was communicated to the Storage cluster and if a reboot is required for each setting contained in the file. The Swarm UI also indicates which settings require rebooting.
