Power on Storage Nodes
Must Have
Verify the storage nodes are powered on and booting over PXE before proceeding.
If the storage nodes are not powered on yet, Swarm Installer displays a wizard to power them on. Click Ok to proceed and power on storage nodes.
Swarm Installer waits for storage nodes to power on. Once done, details like IP address, hostname, CPU, memory, and maximum storage capacity in TB are displayed for each powered-on storage node. Minimum 3 nodes must be set up and connected to the network to configure the Swarm cluster.
