Opened: Jun 25, 2024 Severity: 3-Major
F5OS BIG-IP Tenant does not display the serial number for the slot ("Host Board Serial") under "System Information"
The slot serial number is not immediately visible to the user
BIG-IP tenant is running on a chassis, and command "tmsh show sys hardware" is run from the tenant
For CLI, login to the partition and run command "show components component state serial-no". For GUI, login to the active controller, then go to System Settings -> System Inventory. The blade serial number will be shown.
F5OS was updated to provide the blade serial number to the tenant for display. The tenant was updated to populate the blade serial number into "show sys hardware" command output, so it is now visible to the user. This fix requires a version 17.5 tenant.
