<div>Hi C,</div>
<div>Thanks for the response. </div>
<div>I did check the /etc/sysconfig/network file. In fact, in this server the 'hostname' and 'hostname -f' commands return the same fqdn as well. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There must be some other means by which ovirt-3.5 is trying to reverse resolve the IP. Still pondering what it is.</div>

<p dir="ltr">Hi Kripa,</p>
<p dir="ltr">When you set up the oVirt engine it looks like it tries to resolve the fqdn of the machine (which in this case looks like you either haven't updated /etc/sysconfig/network to match the fqdn you provided in the setup or you have and haven't rebooted
/ reset your network stack).</p>
<p dir="ltr">I found the same thing after providing the fqdn it was intended to be in oVirt 3.4 setup (I haven't built a 3.5 engine from scratch, yet) but hadn't updated /etc/sysconfig/network so it tried to resolve against localhost.localdomain.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Hope this helps.</p>
