Ok, so HBase like Hadoop uses the hostname then goes to DNS to resolve the
hostname.
If DNS is set up, does it skip /etc/hosts altogether, or depending on how DNS
is set up, will it eventually get to /etc/hosts?
And how often does the HBase master bind? Just once?
Sorry to jump in on this conversation, but I'm curious if there's any work to
fix it so if a machine is dual nic'd (two nics, each pointing to a different
network) that you can specify which nic you want to use for connectivity for a
resource. (Imagine if you have a private lan for the cloud and then an external
interface.)
Thx
