# metalcloud-cli infrastructure deploy

Deploy infrastructure changes to physical resources

## Synopsis

Deploy an infrastructure configuration to provision and configure physical resources.

This command applies all pending changes to the infrastructure including creating, 
modifying, or destroying compute instances, drives, and network configurations.
The deployment process may take several minutes depending on the complexity of changes.

Arguments:
  infrastructure_id_or_label  The ID (numeric) or label (string) of the infrastructure to deploy

Flags:
  --allow-data-loss           Allow deployment even if data loss is expected (default: false)
  --attempt-soft-shutdown     Attempt ACPI power off before deployment (default: true)
  --attempt-hard-shutdown     Force hard power off after timeout if soft shutdown fails (default: true)
  --soft-shutdown-timeout     Timeout in seconds for soft shutdown before forcing hard shutdown (default: 180)
  --force-shutdown           Force immediate shutdown of all servers (default: false)

Examples:
  ## Deploy infrastructure with default settings
  metalcloud-cli infrastructure deploy 123

  ## Deploy with custom shutdown settings
  metalcloud-cli infrastructure deploy web-cluster --soft-shutdown-timeout 300

  ## Deploy allowing data loss (dangerous)
  metalcloud-cli infrastructure deploy test-env --allow-data-loss

  ## Force deployment with immediate shutdown
  metalcloud-cli infrastructure deploy emergency-fix --force-shutdown

  ## Using the alias
  metalcloud-cli infrastructure apply production-cluster

```
metalcloud-cli infrastructure deploy infrastructure_id_or_label [flags]
```
