Hostnames Page#

Hostnames are entities that are not created by the ICE ClusterWare ™ platform, but that the platform should be aware of. A hostname could be a file server, database server, network gateway, or other system that interacts with one or more ClusterWare nodes.

Use the Hostnames page to create a DNS record for the external entity. DNS records can be either A records or SRV records. The page is available via Network > Hostnames in the left navigation panel.
