To the gluster volume add brick command, the brick information needs to 
be passed in the form <ip address or host name>:<directory path>

So even if we do show the network names in the UI, we will need the 
underlying IP address to form this command.
Regarding DNS names, currently is there a way to query for the DNS 
aliases for a host? I would need to use hostname in the command above, 
and assume that the user has setup his DNS outside of oVirt to correctly 
resolve to internal/external network, correct?
