ibrix_client status Iad is running.. pid 1352

Messages file also reports:

"FS mount failed on local host -679" <---679 is "Host not Local" error

unreachable insinuating we have name resolution issue.

We ran hostname on the new client and it returned that client's FQDN! and not

the shortname.

The rtool enumhost command from the client or servers reports the shortname!

Resolution:

1. delete the client with ibrix_host -d -h client_name

2. reregister client register_client

3. prefer User network Interface on client:

./ibrix_lwhost --nic -h client_FQDN -n ibrix1 <user interface>

4. lwmount the FS from the client now that we mount to fully qualified domain

name for the client it mounted successfully.
