>                 Key: FLINK-8445
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8445
>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Metrics
>    Affects Versions: 1.3.1, 1.4.0
>         Environment: I think that this problem is present for metrics reporting enabled configurations that include '<host>' as part of the scope for the metrics.  For example, using Graphite reporting configuration in flink-conf.yaml below:
> {code:java}
> metrics.scope.jm: flink.<host>.jobmanager
> metrics.scope.jm.job: flink.<host>.jobmanager.<job_name>
> metrics.scope.tm: flink.<host>.taskmanager
> metrics.scope.tm.job: flink.<host>.taskmanager.<job_name>
> metrics.scope.task: flink.<host>.taskmanager.<job_name>.<task_name>.<subtask_index>
> metrics.scope.operator: flink.<host>.taskmanager.<job_name>.<operator_name>.<subtask_index>
> metrics.reporters: graphite
> metrics.reporter.graphite.class: org.apache.flink.metrics.graphite.GraphiteReporter
> ...{code}
>            Reporter: Chris Thomson
>            Priority: Minor

> Enabled Flink metrics reporting using Graphite using system scopes that contain '<host>' for both the job manager and task manager.  The resulting metrics reported to Graphite use two different representations for '<host>'.
> For *Task Manager metrics* it uses the *short hostname* (without the DNS domain).  This is a result of logic in org.apache.flink.runtime.taskmanager.TaskManagerLocation constructor that tries to extract the short hostname from the fully qualified domain name looked up from InetAddress.getCanonicalHostName().
> For *Job Manager metrics* it uses the *fully qualified domain name* (with the DNS domain). This is a result of there being no logic in org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmanager.JobManagerRunner or org.apache.flink.runtime.rpc.akka.AkkaRpcService to perform equivalent normalization of the fully qualified domain name down to the short hostname.
> Ideally the '<host>' placeholders in the system scopes for the job manager and task manager related metrics would be replaced with a consistent value (either the short hostname or the fully qualified domain name).  Even better if there was a configuration option to decide which one should be used for metric name generation.
