What I did
Changed the behavior of the
get_chassis_info()
function which is used byshow version
andshow platform summary
to report the serial / model / revision of the switch to only attempt to call the platform API if pmon completely failed to provision STATE_DB with CHASSIS_INFOHow I did it
Altered
get_chassis_info()
according to the above behavior. See changelog for details.How to verify it
Verify
show platform summary
andshow version
correctly report chassis info.Delete the
CHASSIS_INFO
table fromSTATE_DB
