Dear Team,
we have noticed since a couple of days that some switches are shorten in the name. In detail: At the overview page under the section 'Status Warnings and Notifications' we got several switches shorten in name. For example the name is 'fra4.b.j1-switch1.acc' and in the given section it is shorten to 'fra4.a' and thats it. This behaviour is not occuring at other switches. Only at about 20% of our infrastructure this strange shortening appears. Fully random, no particularly order or chronological order to notice. I cannot get an idea why this is happening.
The switches are added through hostnames as usual. First I thought this is caused by the dots in the name that they are somehow noticed as a kind of DNS suffix and that the names are shorten by this. But at other switches named by the same scheme this is not the case.
Do you got an Idea why this is happening or what we can do against it?
Kind regards, Sebastian
