I may have found a bug. The show system power-supply detailed command is only showing me two power supplies, when the VSF stack contains two switches with a total of four power supplies. Have a look, let me know what you think.

Yes, totally possible.

I noticed it also on a VSF running on older KB.16.05.0007 (that VSF is deployed with two Aruba 5406R zl2 switches with a total of 4 Power Supply units, 2 on each VSF Member).

The show system power-supply detailed command fails to list the VSF Member 2's PS units...it just lists PS units installed on VSF Member 1 only.

See below:

It's probably time to open a ticket through ASP (I wasn't able to find any reference to such issue on latest KB.16.08.0003 or KB.16.09.0001 Release Notes...so, maybe, it was just unobserverd before).

Do you want me to open the ticket?

It would be a very good idea because you have a VSF running on a newer Firmware than me and, eventually, you can always provide them a link to this specific thread to let them know that this issue was present - at least - since KB.16.05.0007...so, basically, it is more than one year old. If you don't have time I'll open a ticket ASAP.

I created the case.

Well done! Keep us updated...

What the new ?

Last I heard they were trying to reproduce in their lab.
