rhevm-setup gives a warning "Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully resolvable [host.example.com]"

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Setting up a demo for RHEVM on a laptop using RHEVM all in one plugin. However, running rhevm-setup complains that the hostname of the server is not resolvable:

    Host fully qualified domain name. Note: this name should be fully resolvable  [host.example.com] : 
    
  • How can I get around this simply without having to run any additional services? Is there a simple solution to make the name resolvable?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.1, 3.2
  • Optional: RHEVM setup plugin allinone
