Universal Compute Platform supports a stand-alone mode and a full-cluster mode. Stand-alone mode requires only one defined node, but a cluster can be deployed using multiples of three (for example, three, six, or nine nodes) depending on your resource requirements.
Configure only one node for stand-alone mode or configure a full cluster of nodes (using multiples of three).
Note
When using an ExtremeCloud™ IQ engine, you must configure a cluster of three or more nodes in multiples of three (for example, three, six, or nine nodes). ExtremeCloud IQ is not supported in stand-alone mode, requires a cluster, and does not support engine types other than ExtremeCloud IQ.What to do Next
