VMware vSphere 6 on Dell EMC PowerEdge Servers Release Notes
vSphere web client displays incorrect Service Tag for Dell EMC PowerEdge blade servers
- Description:
- The vCenter server connected using a web client displays incorrect service tag for Dell EMC PowerEdge blade servers. The Service Tag displayed is a combination of chassis service tag and blade server Service Tag.
- Applies to:
- ESXi 6.0 U2
- Solution:
- This issue can be ignored because there is no functionality loss. Run the smbiosDump command in ESXi to know the correct Service Tag for the blade and also for the chassis.
