Unable to ping by Name

Hi All, I have 3 AWS VM's. VM01 is domain controler, VM02 and VM03 joined domain. I am able to ping VM's by IP , full name "host.domain.com" and AWS Private DNS butnot with "host" .  Can you please help me out for this?

The  short form is done by adding the domain,com part as a search value in the DNS settings...
f.e. in Unix systems by adding the line
search domain.com

Open in new window

to the /etc/resolv.conf file, there can be multiple domains on the search line.  Keep in mind that adding things there might make name rsolving take more time. So use the most likely name on front.
(each search entry will add an extra query.)
