IT39237: FABRIC DASHBOARD DOES NOT LIST SWITCH NAMES TO IDENTIFY PORTS

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The Fabric dashboard view does not list switch names next to the
  ports, making it difficult to identify them.  This is
  inconsistent with the Fabric view in Resources > Fabrics >
  double click a fabric, which shows the switch name next to the
  port.  With more than one switch in a fabric, the switch name is
  necessary to identify the port listed.
