Solution 1520223.1 : Exalogic Storage Nodes Hostnames Are Displayed Incorrectly

Applies to:

Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud X2-2 Hardware - Version All Versions and later
Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud Software - Version 1.0.0.0.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Exalogic storage node hostnames displayed on the BUI are different than the ones displayed when accessing the node through SSH or ILOM.

Cause

Hostname is misconfigured on ZFS Storage Appliance.

Solution

To solve this problem, it is necessary to set the system name and location accordingly on the Storage Appliance nodes BUI.

1. Login on the ZFS Storage Appliance BUI
2. Go to the "Configuration" tab, and select the "Services" subtab
3. Under the "Systems Settings" section, click on "System Identity"
4. Set the system name and location accordingly

System Identity setting

As can be seen on the Online Help from the Storage Appliance BUI, the System Name property is a single canonical identifying name for the appliance that is shown in the user interface. This name is separate from any DNS names that are used to connect to the system (which would be configured on remote DNS servers). This name can be changed at any time.

In the same way, the System Location property is a text string to describe the where the appliance is physically located. If SNMP is enabled, this will be exported as the syslocation string in MIB-II.
