Ambari server using IP address instead of FQDN

sheetal — Tue, 06 Oct 2015 12:11:01 GMT

I noticed that Ambari sever is using IP Address for Ambari server host, however everywhere else it is being used as FQDN

The IP is “192.168.110.1” and fqdn is “r3r31gateway.customer.domain.com”

From command-xxx.json, I see

"hostname": "r3r31gateway.customer.domain.com”,

And

"ambari_server_host": [

"192.168.110.1"

Just wondering, why would that happen? Why would Ambari server use IP address instead of FQDN (even when it has FQDN)

Secondly, how do we fix this and make Ambari use fqdn for “ambari_server_host” instead of IP address?

Please see /etc/ambari-agent/conf/ambari-agent.ini

This is reference to old doc but see if it helps. link

I would like to get more information on this issue. for example: however everywhere else it is being used as FQDN - Could you elaborate more on this?
