Running the latest version of CloudMin (5.1, same occured in 5 as well) on CentOS 5.5 (32bit) adding a pre-existing Citrix Xen VM constantly fails with 'Failed to add system : Missing or invalid hostname' regardless of where the hostname is specified as 'test' or 'test.example.com'. This is with a XenServr 5.6 host, the VM is running Windows.

Status:

Closed (fixed)

You need to enter either a hostname that can be resolved in DNS, or the IP of the VM..

Thanks - the hostname wasn't resolving, hence why it failed.
