Hi,

this could be due to the file /etc/hosts:

   On debian/Ubuntu the format is as follow:
   127.0.0.1       localhost
   127.0.1.1       fqdn <Short Name>


On Redhat/Centos the format could be very different but it should be:

   127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain   localhost
   XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX         shortname    fqdn


So make sure the fqdn is first and problem is gone :D





Cordialement,
JM

I'm testing out collectd 5.1.0 on both CentOS 6.2 and Ubuntu boxes in my enviornment. I've setup collectd to send metrics to our graphite server. All seems to be working well with the exception of one thing. On our CentOS boxes collectd is sending the servers FQDN vs the short name. This doesn't happen on our ubuntu boxes. I've made sure the FQDNLookup setting is set to false. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?


Thanks!
