Question

SSAS can't connect to services via IP; only domain

Is there some FMS-specific reason why a sendAndLoad function in SSAS couldn't connect to a site on an IP address? Are there any configurations that would need to be set to allow/deny this type of connection? We have a server instance that can only connect to sites hosted on fully qualified domains.

    IPs should work for this, so I'll have to go for a few meta reasons perhaps

    1. Perhaps the DNS is resolving to an IP that's not the one being targetted, we should probably double check that

    2. Since a lot of load balancers end up serving a different IP to handle the traffic than is initially targetted we may be getting redirected via DNS but IP isn't working.

    I'd confirm from that machine directly if possible - if not then I'd check if FMS from its general SSAS can connect to the IP as desired - if it can then perhaps there's a bug we're unaware of in there.
