F5OS BIG-IP Tenant does not display the serial number for the slot ("Host Board Serial") under "System Information" section
There is a delay in displaying the slot number to the user.
BIG-IP tenant is operating on a chassis, and the command "tmsh show sys hardware" is executed from the tenant.
-- For CLI, log in to the partition and run the command "show components component state serial-no." -- For GUI, log in to the active controller, then navigate to System Settings -> System Inventory. The blade's serial number will be displayed.
F5OS version 1.8.1 has been updated to allow tenants to view the blade serial number. The tenant system now includes the blade serial number in the output of the "show sys hardware" command, making it visible to users. Please note that this fix requires a tenant version of 17.5 or higher.
