Show Serial Numbers not Cluster IDs in Resources Overview

Resources -> Block Storage Systems, column "Serial Number": For IBM Storwize systems, cluster IDs are listed instead of serial numbers. No-one identifies a storage system by it's cluster ID. It would be much better to show the S/N of the control enclosure instead. Please change the content of the Serial Number fields to really display the S/N, as the column title suggests.
