So put the Lustre server entries in /etc/hosts

It works, as long as the cname provides the right interface for Lustre.  
Lustre keeps the IP addresses internally, so the IP address cannot be 
changed without also modifying the Lustre config -- must match the NIDs 
used when formatting the filesystem.
