GOAL:
How is the hostname (-H), specified on database startup, related to the value returned by the OS call gethostbyname.
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1D
OpenEdge 10.1x
OpenEdge 10.0B
FIX:
As of 9.1D09 and 10.0B, Progress compares the hostname specified on database startup and the host's actual name returned by gethostbyname up to the first period; i.e. hostname specified (-H) = endor and the return from the OS gethostbyname is endor.bedford.progress.com which is a match up to the first period, endor = endor. The -H value set on database startup must match the return value from the OS call, gethostbyname to have a successful startup.
