For critical stuff like NFS nodes, it is best practice for LDAP, DNS, SSD
and NFS targets to have /etc/hosts file entries.

Especially for NFS/iSCSI stuff.  In my experience it doesn't recover at all
usually required a reboot to get its state marbles/sanity back.

This isn't too painful if you have a configuration management system on
your network like puppet or Redhat Satellite Server.
