Minor Description
Sensors aren't linked to ports on IOS-XE devices. I'm guessing this is because of the way the physical entities are being reported by the device. On IOS the SFP is a child of the port container and the sensors children of the SFP. On IOS-XE the port is child of the transceiver along with the sensors. I attached some screen shots of of the inventory of two different devices that show this.

Seemed sensible to update this existing issue rather than create a new one? Seem to be seeing this same issue on the new 64-bit flavour of IOS-XR on an ASR99K.
Sensors debug (./discovery.php -d -m sensors -h <device>) attached;
Added debug as requested and also two more screenshots that show the difference in how the sensors are presented on the main device page.
Let me try explaining better.... On the device status page for ios and iosxr devices there is a section that says "Port sensors" which shows the TX/RX/temperature readings for each SFP grouped by the devices ports. On iosxe devices this section is missing and the light levels are shown in the dBm section and the temperatures in the temperature section.
It looks like this linking of sensors to ports is done with the sensors.measured_entity and sensors.measured_class attributes, which are set to null for our iosxe devices while on our ios and iosxr devices measured_class = port and measured_entity is set to a port_id .
Not sure, that I understand your question and trouble..
Please attach debug output for:
./discovery.php -d -m sensors -h <device>

Thanks for looking at this so quickly Mike!
Updated to r8964 but no change:
Let me know if any further debug outputs would be of help?
