-----------------------------------

Hi [~bschuchardt] ,

I tried to move this part into the 'else' statement, but it failed. See PR [#4367.|https://github.com/apache/geode/pull/4367]

This change causes changes on the upgraded version, but as tests checks difference between old version(use ipAddress) and new version(with this change use hostName) and failed.

From my point of view, we can now disable this flag and on the major release remove it to always use hostnames.

> When network-partition-detection is enabled membership identifiers use numeric host IP addresses instead of host names.  This should be changed to always use host names - much of the rest of Geode uses hostnames regardless of how this setting is configured, so we're dependent on the computer's host name resolution service anyway.
