Sorry for the delay in replying.

Using /etc/hosts (as you mentioned earlier) should work - I'm just trying to 
set up a system to confirm.

You can either

*         use the EC2-assigned names or

*         set up DNS as proposed by our install instructions - these are just 
convention.
Note that if you use the EC2-assigned names, you won't be able to set up a 
system with more than 1 node of each type because this requires multiple IP 
addresses associated with a single DNS record, and the EC2-assigned names don't 
support this.  It should be fine for small-scale deployments, though.

How have you built your deployment?  Presumably using the manual install 
process?  Assuming so, you'll need to

*         update your /etc/clearwater/config file

*         restart clearwater-infrastructure (using "sudo service 
clearwater-infrastructure restart")

*         restart components (using "sudo service <component> stop" or "sudo 
monit restart <component>" - the former is normally faster).

Please let me know how you get on.

Thanks,

Matt

Subject: [Clearwater] DNS Setup Questions

I'm using Amazon EC2 servers.  Each server is assigned a DNS name by Amazon 
that is reachable publicly.  They are in this format.
ec2-1-1-1-1.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com<http://ec2-1-1-1-1.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com>
ec2-2-2-2-2.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com<http://ec2-2-2-2-2.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com>
ec2-3-3-3-3.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com<http://ec2-3-3-3-3.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com>
ec2-4-4-4-4.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com<http://ec2-4-4-4-4.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com>
ec2-5-5-5-5.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com<http://ec2-5-5-5-5.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com>

Do I need to setup a DNS service to announce the names in your format, i.e.
sprout.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com<http://sprout.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com>,
 etc.?
Or, can I used the EC2 assigned names?
