Add Switch Guided Proedure (Versions 1.0 & 2.0)
Problem: The online help contains no information about the Missing
Remote ServerNet Switch alarm or time limits for connecting the
four-lane links.
The TSM incident analysis (IA) software generates an alarm if one
external fabric has two cluster switches while the other external
fabric has only one cluster switch. After a second cluster switch is
added to an external fabric, the IA checks the peer fabric to
determine if it has two cluster switches. If, after 4 minutes, only
one external fabric has two cluster switches, the IA generates a
Missing Remote ServerNet Switch alarm. If, after 4 more
minutes, the peer fabric still does not have two cluster switches,
the IA dials out the Missing Remote ServerNet Switch alarm.
If a second cluster switch is added to the peer fabric after the
alarm is generated but before the alarm is dialed out, the alarm is
deleted and is not dialed out.
Workaround: When adding cluster switches to create a split-star
topology, connect the four-lane links for both external fabrics
within 4 minutes to avoid generating the Missing Remote
ServerNet Switch alarm. If the four-lane links cannot be
connected within 4 minutes, connect them within 8 minutes to
avoid dialing out the Missing Remote ServerNet Switch alarm.

Add Switch Guided Procedure (Version 3.0)
Problem: In the "Upgrading a Split-Star Topology to a Tri-Star
Topology" topic, Step 1 directs the user to merge two split-star
topologies, which is not supported. Step 1 should direct the user to
merge a split-star topology with a star topology.
Workaround: Download Version 3.1 of the Help file
