A local VM path must start with a slash (/) and end with .sh. NOTE: A path must be unique in the same cluster, but can be the same for different clusters.
   Parameter	Bootstrap action script parameters
   Execution Node	Select a type of the node where the bootstrap action script is executed.
   Executed	Select the time when the bootstrap action script is executed. Before initial component start After initial component start NOTE: You can only manually run the third-party component installation script on the node to install a running cluster component.
   Action upon Failure	Whether to continue to execute subsequent scripts and create a cluster after the script fails to be executed. NOTE: You are advised to set this parameter to Continue in the debugging phase so that the cluster can continue to be installed and started no matter whether the bootstrap action is successful.
