2689602 - dblocate utility can not detect the correct IP address - SAP IQ

Symptom

When the user specifies an IP address other than eth0 using the MyIP option, dblocate utility can not detect the correct IP address.

In addition, this problem has an impact on IQ Cockpit.
IQ Cockpit use dblocate utility.
Due to this problem IQ Cockpit can not log in to the IQ server used MyIP.

ex:

Repro machine has 2 network interfaces.

eth0: 192.168.0.100
eth1: 192.168.1.100

And, IP address returned from this host name is eth0.

iqdemo.cfg include "MyIP" option. MyIP set eth1 address.

-x tcpip{MyIP=192.168.1.100;port=2638}

IQ Server open the listener on '192.168.1.100.' only.
