INCIDENTS FIXED BY THE PATCH
----------------------------
This patch fixes the following Symantec incidents:

Patch ID: HF050001960-04

* 2939361 (Tracking ID: 2943751)

SYMPTOM:
Incorrectly showing UUID instead of hostname.

DESCRIPTION:
Faults raised using fault.pl were incorrectly showing UUID instead of host name 
for the source attribute.

RESOLUTION:
Use API "get_mh_hostname" to read sfm_resolv.conf file and get the value for 
mh_hostname. If we are not able to find the mh_hostname from any of the domain 
entries, we will be falling back to get_fqdn().
