So it looks like I'm going to be logging by IP address so that I can get logs into a central location. The problem with this is that I want another machine to know my IP address without looking it up by host name. The reason for this is that we are using virtual machines for the test simulation, and hostname resolution may/will have conflicts in the near future. The VMs cannot be entirely fenced of because we have a limited number of database servers, so they will be shared. So, if I have 2 machines A and B, and I want A to provide its IP address to B without lookup by hostname, does STAF have support for this? Unfortunately, I went through the STAF variable list STAF LOCAL VAR LIST And none of the variables expose an IP address. I assume this is complicated by possibilities of multiple nics, etc, so I reviewed STAF LOCAL MISC QUERY INTERFACE tcp But the IP address isn't exposed here, and I'm not even sure how I would deliver it into a variable from such a command. I assume it is possible to write a custom script to identify the ip address of the machine I'm on followed by calling the STAF variable set, but I was thinking this has to have been solved before...
