Resolving Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or Hostname
Resolving FQDN or Hostname on Runtime:
If Microsoft SQL Server EKM library is unable to establish a connection with the IP address or addresses associated with the configured hostname or FQDN, it will attempt to resolve the hostname or FQDN again to obtain new IP addresses. Once the resolution process is completed successfully, new IP addresses are obtained. Consequently, the library will update the hostname or FQDN with the new IP addresses, and try to establish a connection again using these new IP addresses.
