APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After upgrading to IBM Spectrum Control 5.2.12, the level 3
  panels in the GUI that contain table listings of monitored
  resources (e.g. volumes, alerts, block mode storage systems)
  have increased line spacing due to an increased row height which
   results in fewer rows displayed per screen.  There is about 40%
   less information available on each screen in larger
  environments with lengthy lists.  Prefer to see more information
   available at the old spacing.
