APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Alerts triggered for SVC Fiber Ports generate an email
    containing an SVC internal port "ID" number instead of the
    external "port_id" number.  Not listing the external port makes
    responding to the Alert unnecessarily difficult forcing the user
    to investigate and correlate the internal port to the external
    ports before taking action.   TPC should provide the external
    port ID in Alert generated emails.
    Problem as described by customer:
    Emails received from TPC associated to the SVC Port Alerts
    contain the internal port ID
    Initial customer impact (low/med/high):
    Low
