I hope so - the issue isn't in my test environment - it's in Red Hat's production IT environment!

If you look at the vol file, all the remote host definitions are by fqdn, but a peer status shows 2 of the 8 nodes as IP address not names. My expectation would be only one IP address in the peer status list - which is one of the things I wanted someone on the list to confirm....just in case I was having a bad day...it happens :)
