+This option is used mainly with knet transport to identify local node.
|
|
|
+It's also used by client software (pacemaker).
|
|
|
+Algorithm for identifying local node is following:
|
|
|
+.RS
|
|
|
+.IP 1.
|
|
|
+Looks up $HOSTNAME in the nodelist
|
|
|
+.IP 2.
|
|
|
+If this fails strip the domain name from $HOSTNAME and looks up
|
|
|
+that in the nodelist
|
|
|
+.IP 3.
|
|
|
+If this fails look in the nodelist for a fully-qualified name whose
|
|
|
+short version matches the short version of $HOSTNAME
|
|
|
+.IP 4.
|
|
|
+If all this fails then search the interfaces list for an address that
|
|
|
+matches a name in the nodelist
