While the hostname
289
localhost
290
usually resolves to the IP address
291
127\&.0\&.0\&.1, this may not necessarily be true for all operating platforms and configurations\&. This means that it is possible, when
292
localhost
293
is used in
294
config\&.ini, for
295
\fBndb_config \fR\fB\fB\-\-host=localhost\fR\fR
296
to fail if
297
\fBndb_config\fR
298
is run on a different host where
299
localhost
300
resolves to a different address (for example, on some versions of SUSE Linux, this is
301
127\&.0\&.0\&.2)\&. In general, for best results, you should use numeric IP addresses for all MySQL Clustewr configuration values relating to hosts, or verify that all MySQL Cluster hosts handle
302
localhost
303
in the same fashion\&.
