Re: MQ message

Is the application using IP address instead of name? Ideally the change
would be made there. But, a cursory glance for that message id seems to
show it favors showing you the IP address.

As a manual step one can usually do
NSLOOKUP 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'
and get the name. For example:

NSLOOKUP '10.17.6.32'
Server: 10.10.4.250
Address: 10.10.4.250#53

32.6.17.10.in-addr.arpa name = gdihq1.corp.dekko.com.

Press ENTER to end terminal session.


This means that on DNS server 10.10.4.250 it did a reverse lookup (that's
why the IP address is shown backwards) and found an entry for
gdihq1.corp.dekko.com
I use this technique quite often. There's probably some API to look that
up also if you need to program that.
