Description

AddressUtilTest is failing on Jenkins/Continuum.
The problem appears to be that HostNameUtil.getLocalHostAddress() can return an IPv6 address which does not have the expected format.

INFO [AddressUtil] - <obtainFinalThreeDigitsOfAddressAsStringLookup running; ipstring [fe80:0:0:0:221:5aff:fee0:c355%2]>
WARN [AddressUtil] - <could not find a . in address: fe80:0:0:0:221:5aff:fee0:c355%2  returning default: 000>

The String only appears to be used in KeyGeneratorUtil.generateRequestId().
This will be passed "000" if AddressUtil fails.

Possible fixes:

• change AddressUtil to handle IPv6 (I assume it must return digits)
• change AddressUtilTest to ignore the failure if the local address is IPv6
