Description Stephen Gordon 2013-10-23 13:38:11 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1022539 +++

Description of problem:

I am testing packstack in virtual machines and have a libvirt network configured such that virtual machines have the resolvable names:

controller.example.com
compute1.example.com
compute2.example.com

When running packstack with the --install-hosts option however I found that it will not accept host names.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

openstack-packstack-2013.2.1-0.11.dev806.el6.noarch

Actual results:

# packstack --install-hosts=controller.example.com,compute1.example.com,compute2.example.com
Welcome to Installer setup utility
Parameter CONFIG_NOVA_API_HOST failed validation: Given host is not in IP address format: controller.example.com

ERROR : Failed handling answer file: Given host is not in IP address format: controller.example.com
Please check log file /var/tmp/packstack/20131023-131046-H8efqE/openstack-setup.log for more information

Expected results:

Creation of a three node setup with host names used in configuration files instead of IP addresses.

RFE to support FQN rather than IPs. First thing will be to investigate which OPenStack's services support names and which don't.
