Ivan Kelly commented on BOOKKEEPER-629:
---------------------------------------
It should use reverseDNS on the ip it would have registered on otherwise to get
the hostname. Otherwise, when it registers it may register with a domain which
is not resolvable from the client (such as localhost).
> Support hostname based ledger metadata to help users to change IP with
> exitsting installation

> Key: BOOKKEEPER-629
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BOOKKEEPER-629
> Project: Bookkeeper
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: bookkeeper-client, bookkeeper-server
> Affects Versions: 4.2.1, 4.3.0
> Reporter: Vinay
>
> Register the bookie with *hostname:port* and also store the bookie addresses
> as *hostname:port* in ledger metadata files instead of *ip:port*
> This will help users to change the machine IP if they want without loosing
> their data.
> Supporting hostname based installation/functionality is one of the important
> requirement of users.
> Any thoughts?
