Actually, it is an hbase question. I faced same issue when I was testing recovery with hadoop 1 and I had a semi finished hbase cluster setup. The start up guide for hbase says to add 127.0.0.1 so when I did that on another node and started hadoop using that node as name node, hadoop would only see that node running on localhost and not on the static ip. The datanodes would not see the name node either. It is kind of confusing that hadoop wants it one way and hbase requires it the way hadoop won't work.

I'm just suggesting that probably better lists for figuring how to set up your networking.
