Re: gluster update question regarding new DNS resolution requirement

I missed the other important log snip:

The message "E [MSGID: 101075] [common-utils.c:520:gf_resolve_ip6] 0-resolver: error in getaddrinfo [{family=10}, {ret=Address family for hostname not supported}]" repeated 620 times between [2021-09-20 15:49:23.720633 +0000] and [2021-09-20 15:50:41.731542 +0000]

So I will dig in to the code some here.
