Initialization scripts

Cluster nodes can run an initialization script based on an init script path that you specify in an advanced configuration. Each node runs the script when the node is created, and the script can reference other init scripts.
You might want to run an init script to install additional software on the cluster. For example, your enterprise policy might require each cluster node to contain monitoring and anti-virus software to protect your data.
Consider the following guidelines when you create the init script:
The init script path must be in cloud storage. You can place the scripts in a unique path on the cloud storage system, or you can place the scripts in the staging location.
