Zkfc + Does not contain a valid host

we installed from scratch new ambari cluster

and we notice that Zkfc is fail to start as the following:

what this mean - java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Does not contain a valid host ??

/usr/hdp/2.6.0.3-8/hadoop/sbin/hadoop-daemon.sh start  zkfc
starting zkfc, logging to /var/log/hadoop/hdfs/hadoop-hdfs-zkfc-master01.bx_hhtyr8.com.out

@Michael Bronson

Looks like the problem is with your hostname. "master01.bx_hhtyr8" Can you please try a hostname which does not have Underscore?

Please see the "Restrictions on valid hostnames" section from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostname link says

While a hostname may not contain other characters, such as the underscore character (_), other DNS names may contain the underscore.

yes seems you are right we already installe more then 30 clusters without problem and without Underscore
