IP address to host name mapping

You must ensure that your computer host name is configured correctly before you set up IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager masters for Multi-Master configuration. You can resolve an IP address to a host name by editing the etc/hosts file.

For DB2 HADR configuration, you must update the etc/hosts file in the primary and standby master servers of the cluster to enable host name to IP address mapping.

Location of the host file

Windows: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\
Linux: /etc/hosts

The following example shows the IP address to host name mapping in the etc/hosts file.

# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
