NetBox version

v3.6.1

Python version

3.8

Steps to Reproduce

Can be replicated quickly in demo version via these steps.

  1. Create a virtual chassis dmi-sw-vc
  2. Assign two member switches dmi01-buffalo-sw01 and dmi01-camden-sw01
  3. Navigate to Racks > DM-Buffalo > Comms closet

For full reproduction create a site, rack, and member devices as a prerequisite to these steps.

Expected Behavior

Rack view should show the name of the member device

Observed Behavior

Rack view shows <virtual_chassis>:<member_position>

@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Sep 11, 2023):

This is functioning as designed: Display of the member's VC and position was an intentional decision when the SVG rendering feature was introduced, as you can see here:

a8a36c0a8f/netbox/dcim/svg/racks.py (L32-L33)

As such, it can not be modified without justification. If you'd like to propose changing the displayed text, please submit a feature request including justification for discussion.
