Technical Note: Host export contains larger number of records than displayed in host view
Description
Scope
Version: 8.x
Solution
When the Adapter - Physical Address field is included in the export, each adapter will be listed as a separate entry. Therefore, multiple entries for the same host will occur if the host has multiple associated adapter records.
Host - Host Name | Adapter - Physical Address
----------------------------------------------------------------
Host1 | Adapter1
Host2 | Adapter2
Host3 | Adapter3
Host4 | Adapter4
Host5 | Adapter5
Host5 | Adapter6
Host5 | Adapter7
Host View displays x number of hosts, where the resulting exported data shows a larger number.
Example: Host View shows "Hosts - Displayed: 5" but the resulting export contains 7 records.

Solution
When the Adapter - Physical Address field is included in the export, each adapter will be listed as a separate entry. Therefore, multiple entries for the same host will occur if the host has multiple associated adapter records.
Example: The below exported data shows a total of 7 records as opposed to 5 because the host5 has 3 associated adapter records.
Host - Host Name | Adapter - Physical Address
----------------------------------------------------------------
Host1 | Adapter1
Host2 | Adapter2
Host3 | Adapter3
Host4 | Adapter4
Host5 | Adapter5
Host5 | Adapter6
Host5 | Adapter7
