Description of problem: If the hostname of a glusterfs server is not resolvable, deployments using glusterfs will fail, even if the server was specified by IP address. To use glusterfs, users need to ensure that the hostname of the server is resolvable. They could add the entry to the Satellite DNS: 1. ssh to satellite machine 2. stop DNS /sbin/service named stop 3. Add the following line to /var/named/dynamic/db.example.com NOT the journal (jnl) files glusterfs A 192.168.52.15 4. Restart /sbin/service named restart 5. Test ping glusterfs.example.com They could also create an entry through the UI, by: 1. Go to Hosts -> New Host 2. Enter a name and specify a location for the host 3. Click Interfaces tab 4. Click edit on the interface already there 5. Add the mac address, fqdn, domain, and IP address of your gluster server 6. Click OK 7. Click the Operating System tab 8. Select the Architecture and OS of your gluster server 9. Unselect "Enable this host for provisioning" 10. Click submit A warning will be displayed if the hostname of the gluster server is not specified. It will not prevent the user from continuing forward with a deployment, but it will probably result in a failed deployment later on. Note: The hostname of the gluster server MUST be resolvable, whether the user is specifying the share by IP address or hostname.
