Page title

Replace Broadcom BES-53248 cluster switches with switchless connections

Summary

In step 1, item 2, we state the following:

network options detect-switchless-cluster show

Show example
If "Enable Switchless Cluster Detection" is false, contact NetApp support.

Would it be possible add the command to enable switchless cluster detection rather than suggest a call in to support?

The following example enables switchless cluster detection:
cluster1::*> network options detect-switchless-cluster modify -enabled true

Thanks,
Tully

@tullynet thanks for highlighting this issue. We'll review this feedback and update the documentation accordingly.

The reason why it states "contact support" is because automatic switchless cluster detection should have already changed the value to "true" once the cables have been moved. If it didn't, it's a bug.

@tullynet We have confirmed with Engineering that the documentation correctly describes product functionality. If you encounter further problems, we suggest you contact NetApp Support.
