I've followed the steps from Microsoft to create a Multi-Node On-Premises Service Fabric cluster. I've deployed a stateless app to the cluster and it seems to be working fine. When I have been connecting to the cluster I have used the IP Address of one of the nodes. Doing that, I can connect via Powershell using Connect-ServiceFabricCluster nodename:19000 and I can connect to the Service Fabric Explorer website (http://nodename:19080/explorer/index.html).
The examples online suggest that if I hosted in Azure I can connect to http://mycluster.eastus.cloudapp.azure.com:19000 and it resolves, however I can't work out what the equivalent is on my local. I tried connecting to my sample cluster: Connect-ServiceFabricCluster sampleCluster.domain.local:19000 but that returns:
WARNING: Failed to contact Naming Service. Attempting to contact Failover Manager Service... WARNING: Failed to contact Failover Manager Service, Attempting to contact FMM... False WARNING: No such host is known
Connect-ServiceFabricCluster : No cluster endpoint is reachable, please check if there is connectivity/firewall/DNS issue.
Am I missing something in my setup? Should there be a central DNS entry somewhere that allows me to connect to the cluster? Or am I trying to do something that isn't supported On-Premises?
