Stacks. Error will be returned, if this parameter is provided, on Standalone systems. In a
stack, the <unit> parameter identifies the node on which this command must be executed.
When this parameter is not supplied, the command is executed on all nodes in a Stack.

Stacking, where the unit parameter identifies the node on which this command must be
executed. When this parameter is not supplied, the command is executed on all nodes in a
Stack.
