Error description
Feature Compare using WebSphere Topology Discovery Expected Result Side-by side comparison of the WebSphere topology (as previously captured on the UCD resource tree using plugin capability Configure using WebSphere Topology Discovery) on the left, and the freshly-queried WebSphere topology on the right side of the comparison panel, with differences in topology and basic setting properties clearly visible. Actual Result The capability is working, however on the right side (cell side) of the comparison panel, there are many extra, empty resource groupings shown, typically if not always with no properties (screenshot below). These multiple extra empty Cell Only resources are distracting and make it challenging to navigate the comparison tree since a lot of extra scrolling is needed and it is easy to lose context while scrolling through dozens of rows of extra Cell Only resources that don't seem relevant to the comparison. When there are actual topology differences, the differing resources can be offset by many rows of what we believe are unnecessary Cell Only resource groupings. If that extra level of Cell Only resources were not shown, the differing topology would be more clearly visible. Desired behavior We would like not to see the extra level of empty, Cell Only resources on the topology comparison resource tree.
