Rakesh R commented on BOOKKEEPER-629:
-------------------------------------

I could see one case, where the "BookieMetadataFormatVersion" will be 
incremented inorder to change IP to hostname. Now old clients may fail in 
parsing the metadata LedgerMetadata#parseConfig (). Here to avoid parsing err 
before running the tool, admin should ensure all the clients also be upgraded 
to 4.3.0

[~fpj] If we can reach to an agreement like, all the meta changes will do only 
through admin tool, then will try push this JIRA in and will start focusing on 
the admin tool BOOKKEEPER-634. Does that make sense to you ?

> 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?
