Add-VMHost - reverse name lookup

[harkamal]

I am using Add-VMHost to add a host to vCenter.

Add-VMHost hostnameA

The issue is that my hostnameA gets resolved to ribHostA, and vCenter adds it as ribHostA -- which i had not asked for.

Can we tell vCenter or Add-vmhost, NOT to do reverse name lookup ?

Thanks in anticipation

You could try

Add-VMHost hostnameA | Set-VMHostNetwork -Hostname hostnameA -DomainName <a-domain-name>

but be aware that this will change the hostname while the problem seems to be in the name resolution (I think).
