This example shows that the stack detected a new switch that is running a different minor version number
than the stack. Auto-copy launches but cannot find software in the stack to copy to the switch in
version-mismatch mode to make it compatible with the stack. The auto-advise process launches and
recommends that you download a tar file from the network to the switch in version-mismatch mode:
