Hi all, 
I know that this question was already raised in the past, but the emails in
the forum didn´t give the whole picture to me to be honest. 

I´m trying to understand how netview internally is setting slot
"adapter_host" in Tivoli events? Where can I find a comprehensive
documentation? I checked some guides, but didn´t find the the rigth place
unfortunately. 

I know that there was a change made in version 7.1.3 fixpack1, but it is not
said how to change the layout of this adapter_host slot (i.e. IP address,
short hostname, full qualified). It looks to me as this for sure is done
automatically by netview, but I would like to understand a little better how
this process can be influenced or how it is working at all. 

For instace if there is a 7.1.2/7.1.1 netview where this slot is filled with
the short name and on the other hand there would be a netview (same
version), which is using full qualified hostnames for the adapter_host. What
would be the reason behind? I guess it is the way the netview machine is
configured to work, i.e. DNS or a local hosts file, how data is set up in
the DNS/hosts file and the order in which they get used  right?   

Thanks in advance.
