Hi,

When you specify the FQDN of the SD in a Storage resource, does the 
director or the FD do the host name lookup? The documentation seems to 
suggest that it is the FD, but it isn't completely clear to me.

http://www.bacula.org/en/dev-manual/Configuring_Director.html#StorageResource2

*Address = <address>*
    Where the address is a host name, a *fully qualified domain name*,
    or an *IP address*. Please note that the <address> as specified here
    will be transmitted to the File daemon who will then use it to
    contact the Storage daemon. Hence, it is *not*, a good idea to use
    *localhost* as the name but rather a fully qualified machine name or
    an IP address. This directive is required.
