You should not edit it. You need to execute an additional command when your node is up and running and online.  
Use the commands from the guide:

I would recommend to [opt-in for zkSync](https://docs.storj.io/node/dependencies/storage-node-operator-payout-information/zk-sync-opt-in-for-snos/) or [Polygon](https://forum.storj.io/t/jan-14-2022-payouts-for-the-month-of-december-are-now-complete-and-polygon-announcement/16814), if your held amount with undistributed payout is less than 4x transfer fee of ERC20 token (see [19 Gwei | Ethereum Gas Tracker | Etherscan](https://etherscan.io/gastracker) to track it), because the final payout is a subject of minimum payout threshold.  
Or at least do not delete the identity after finishing of graceful exit on case if you change your mind.
