IT40832: USERS WITH ADMIN AND MONITOR ROLES CANNOT VIEW A STORAGE SYSTEM'S "CONNECTIVITY COMPONENTS" FROM THE OPERATIONS DASHBOARD

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

  tile for their monitored device(s) and this should display a
  list of Fabrics, Backend Storage Systems, and Hosts associated
  with the device. The customer-facing user roles do not display
  this functionality; only the internal user roles do.
