I/O analyser is built on SUSE linux with an internal hostname of `localhost` - not the name you see in the vSphere client.
When it self-registered `localhost` in the Windows DNS the second time it was started this afternoon it swiftly became a focus of attention for Group Operations.
Unsportingly, they deleted the record!
I had to 'fess up - at IT director level.
Doubt I'll be invited to their Christmas party.
Kindly note to the I/O Analyser `flingers`: pls give it a hostname. `vmioa` would suffice.
