Yes , Mike's right . That command would help you copy your UI changes to the server and then you just need to refresh your browser for your changes to reflect on the CloudStack UI .
The active destination where the code gets copied is - cloudstack/ client/target/cloud-client-Snapshot-4.2.0 /scripts/ Within the scripts folder , you'll see all the javascripts files which are loaded by the browser . Hope this helps.
