Ivan Kelly commented on BOOKKEEPER-629:
---------------------------------------
{quote}so if there is no clear solution for backward compatibility, I would
suggest keeping current identifier format and providing an admin tool to change
identifier. Let's do the generic solution util there is a big requirement and
have to do it. for now keep things simple. {quote}
I agree. I think if we could go back and start from scratch, we could do
something nicer to split the bookie identification from the network location.
But with BC things do get more complex.

> Register the bookie with *hostname:port* and also store the bookie addresses
> as *hostname:port* in ledger metadata files instead of *ip:port*
> This will help users to change the machine IP if they want without loosing
> their data.
> Supporting hostname based installation/functionality is one of the important
