egosh service list not get service output

This happened between our egosh "client" on on-prem workstation and the cluster on AWS.


On-prem in our workstation we've setup a "egosh client" which basically is a collection of binaries and dependency of egosh.exe for the purpose of administration. It's not a Symphony client nor a Symphony host, just a collection of egosh commands and soam commands as well as commands/scripts we developed.



Everything has been working fine as always, until last week Xibei found that "egosh service list" executed from the on-prem workstation to our AWS cluster AWAPPRD0 failed to get the service output, instead it got "Cannot list services. EGOSC or VEMKD does not respond."



After days of investigation, we found it is related to CNAME of the master. The background is, the master setup on the AWS is named sgwpawgridmst01.grid-prod.aws.hedani.net and through AWS Route 53 we set a CNAME awapprd0mst0.grid-prod.aws.hedani.net for sgwpawgridmst01.grid-prod.aws.hedani.net. Then in ego.conf file on the on-prem workstation the EGO_MASTER_LIST is set to the CNAME before it was changed to sgwpawgridmst01.grid-prod.aws.hedani.net yesterday. After the change, "egosh service list" can get service output as expected.



We also figured out that if we want to keep the CNAME for EGO_MASTER_LIS, we need to add the short name(sgwpawgridmst01) and the IP into local ..\drivers\etc\hosts file.



We want to understand why CNAME does not work for "egosh service list", because as for other egosh commands like "resource list","consumer list" etc. and soam commands we've never had such issue. After all CNAME is necessary for users. Thanks.
