Resolution
- This can be resolved by adding a record in the hosts file from the Operations Console under Administration > Network > Hosts File.
- Once on the page, click Add New to include the IP address and hostname(s) in the file.
- When done, click Save.
- Another valid option would be adding an Authentication Manager DNS entry, if appropriate, to the environment.
