Description

Noticed the following when running a start-all.sh with bash -x

+ HOST=my_hostname
+ host my_hostname
+ [[ 127 != 0 ]]

I didn't actually have bind-utils installed on centos so we got the 127 retcode. We should probably have this documented somewhere and have better assertions if we actually need this command installed to correctly run the scripts.
