@kbg 

If we have a section describing management console separately and tabs under Storage / Data Foundation such as Overview, Storage Systems, Backing Store, Bucket class and Topology, I would add notification that Topology is not available for external mode cluster.
If we don't have such section in documentation then not having "View OpenShift Data Foundation Topology" in external mode guide will be enough assuming all the rest deployments will have "View OpenShift Data Foundation Topology" section.
