just added a new node to our cluster like described here http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/FAQ#I_have_a_new_node_I_want_to_add_to_a_running_Hadoop_cluster.3B_how_do_I_start_services_on_just_one_node.3F
works just fine, except a minor flaw on this site http://jobtracker:50030/machines.jsp?type=active all task trackers are listed, the first two columns are showing the url and the hostname of the task trackers our "old" mahines do have proper fally qualified host names, but the new one, for some reason, has just the nacked IP address why? how is the hostname of the new tasktracker calculated? regards andre
