             Summary: sbin/start-* scripts use of `hostname -f` fail for Solaris 
                 Key: SPARK-17944
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17944
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0.1
         Environment: Solaris 10, Solaris 11
            Reporter: Erik O'Shaughnessy
            Priority: Trivial


{{$SPARK_HOME/sbin/start-master.sh}} fails:

{noformat}
$ ./start-master.sh 
usage: hostname [[-t] system_name]
       hostname [-D]
starting org.apache.spark.deploy.master.Master, logging to /home/eoshaugh/local/spark/logs/spark-eoshaugh-org.apache.spark.deploy.master.Master-1-m7-16-002-ld1.out
failed to launch org.apache.spark.deploy.master.Master:

I found SPARK-17546 which changed the invocation of hostname in sbin/start-master.sh, sbin/start-slaves.sh and sbin/start-mesos-dispatcher.sh to include the flag {{-f}}, which is not a valid command line option for the Solaris hostname implementation. 

As a workaround, Solaris users can substitute:
{noformat}
`/usr/sbin/check-hostname | awk '{print $NF}'`
{noformat}

Admittedly not an obvious fix, but it provides equivalent functionality.
