Description
Which component(s) does this affect?
- Lite
- Darling
- Documentation
Problem Statement
Both the filter dropdown and column header in the Job History tab in the viewer uses the real servername.
Proposed Solution
It would be preferable that it showed the Display Name the same as the other tabs do.
Use Case
Normally I don't remember all the actual servernames, rather I use the aliases we have for them.

Fixed on dev by #2128, both SKUs:
COALESCE(display_name, raw name)— so the Server filter dropdown, the Server column, the per-column filter popup, and the CSV export all speak your aliases like every other tab, and the Agent roll-up sorts by them.A server no longer in your config keeps its raw collected name — job history is a durable record and rows can outlive their registration. It'll be in the current nightly (
3.4.0-nightly.20260808) — thanks for the ask, this one was overdue.Job History tab speaks display names (erikdarlingdata#2126)
