Note: When using hostnames, the first server i.e, `server1` needs to be probed from
115+
***one*** other server to set its hostname. Reason being when the other server
116+
i.e, `server2` is probed from `server1` it may happen that the hosts are
117+
configured in a way that the IP Address of the server is transmitted on probing.
118+
So in order to use the hostnames in the cluster, it is advised to probe back the
119+
`server1` from `server2`, `server3` or upto nth server based on the cluster size.
