PowerScale Hardware Installation

What is the correct sequence of steps for installing a Dell PowerScale cluster using a Leaf-Spine topology?

Drag & Drop
Explanation

The switch operating-system version must be supported before fabric deployment.

Dell documents that PowerScale nodes attach to leaf switches and that leaf switches connect to spine switches.
