ports on the ServerNet II Switches is included in Section 5 of the
G06.10 revision of the ServerNet Cluster Manual (427410-001).

Problem: The height of the cluster switch enclosure is listed as 37.6
in. (95.5 cm) in the Switch Enclosure Dimensions table in Section 2,
"Planning for Installation." The correct height of the switch enclosure
is 20.5 in. (52 cm).
Correction: The correct height of the cluster switch enclosure
appears in the G06.16 version of the ServerNet Cluster Manual
(520575-002).

Problem: In the procedure to merge two ServerNet clusters that use
a star topology (one cluster switch per fabric), additional steps are
needed to ensure successful merging. The procedure that needs
modification appears in Section 4 of the G06.12 versions
(429153-001 and 520371-001) of the ServerNet Cluster Manual.
Before two ServerNet clusters can be merged, one of the clusters
must be configured to use ServerNet node numbers 9 through
16. These are the high node numbers. Reconfiguration is
achieved by downloading the T0569AAB configuration file to both
the X-fabric and Y-fabric cluster switches and specifying position
2 for the configuration.
During the upgrade, some nodes might retain their old node
numbers (1 through 8). This can happen if the nodes do not
detect a loss of link alive during the upgrade. (SANMAN and the
service processor (SP) must be notified that the link to a cluster
switch is in the down state before changing the ServerNet node
number in the NNA. If the SP interrupt burst suppression is
activated on the NNA port when SANMAN needs to see a link
down event, the nodes cannot detect the loss of link alive.)
Recovery: If you encounter this problem, use the following SCF
script to abort and restart SANMAN on all affected nodes in the
X2/Y2 logical cluster:
ABORT PROCESS $ZZKRN.#ZZSMN
DELAY 5
START PROCESS $ZZKRN.#ZZSMN
