Issue
The Hostname not known error and transaction failure while building a virtual server on a compute resource with SolidFire.
Environment
Compute resource or backup server with SolidFire 10.0.
Resolution
If you get the Hostname not known error, you may point your compute resource or backup server to SolidFire management IP as a workaround.
To point compute resource or backup server to SolidFire management IP, add /etc/hosts entries on your compute resource or backup server for xxx_xxx_xxx_xxx.ip.solidfire.net.
Cause
IP SolidFire URL code does not allow to directly point a compute resource or backup server to SolidFire management IP.
