In one of my tiny (2 node) clusters, the gmond XML on 1 machines does  
not report the correct hostname for the other machine.  I'm trying to  
figure out why.

How does gmond determine what goes in the <HOST NAME=""> attribute?

My gmond.conf includes:
   udp_send_channel {
     host = dev-1-dist1
     port = 8649
     ttl = 1
   }
   udp_send_channel {
     host = dev-1-dist2
     port = 8649
     ttl = 1
   }

On dev-1-dist2:
   $ telnet localhost 8649 | grep HOST
     <HOST NAME="dev-1-dist2.meteostar.local" IP="10.0.3.31"  
REPORTED="1280503440" TN="16" TMAX="20" DMAX="0" LOCATION=""  
GMOND_STARTED="1280502260">
     <HOST NAME="dev-1-dist1.meteostar.local" IP="10.0.3.32"  
REPORTED="1280503454" TN="2" TMAX="20" DMAX="0" LOCATION=""  
GMOND_STARTED="1280502234">

On dev-1-dist1:
   $ telnet localhost 8649 | grep HOST
     <HOST NAME="10.0.3.31" IP="10.0.3.31" REPORTED="1280504565"  
TN="1" TMAX="20" DMAX="0" LOCATION="unspecified"  
GMOND_STARTED="1280504465">
     <HOST NAME="dev-1-dist1.meteostar.local" IP="10.0.3.32"  
REPORTED="1280504565" TN="1" TMAX="20" DMAX="0" LOCATION=""  
GMOND_STARTED="1280504550">

Both machines use the same DNS servers, and there are correct reverse  
lookup records for those IPs.

   [r...@dev-1-dist1 software]# nslookup 10.0.3.32
   Server:              10.0.0.5
   Address:     10.0.0.5#53
   32.3.0.10.in-addr.arpa       name = dev-1-dist1.meteostar.local.

   [r...@dev-1-dist1 software]# nslookup 10.0.3.31
   Server:              10.0.0.5
   Address:     10.0.0.5#53
   31.3.0.10.in-addr.arpa       name = dev-1-dist2.meteostar.local.

What else might I need to investigate?

thanks,
alex
