Description Roman Hodain 2016-09-23 05:43:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
The RHEV-M is currently dependent on the reverse DNS lookup and existence of the PTR record. This requirement cannot be substitute by /etc/hosts file as it doe not provide reverse look up. This in formation is not clearly stated in the installation guide. Missing PTR record can cause significant performance degradation of the RHEV-M Web UI.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Installation guide for 3.6 and 4.0

Expected results:
A section regarding to the DNS requirement and the PRT record should be added to the chapter "System requirements" in the installation guide.
