Configuration file issue with iris mirrorning

Question

#InterSystems IRIS #InterSystems IRIS for Health

Do I always see the IP address of the current host in the [MirrorMember] configuration information in the iris.cpf file? The AgentAddress in my current [MirrorMember] configuration file is empty, SystemName=ip/instance name. Will the SystemName here be in the form of ip/instance name? It could be instance name without ip?

An instance name is not guarantied to be unique.
hostname/ip + instance is.
For example the instance name of our failover primary and backup is the same they are just on different hosts.
We use DNS name not IP addresses though so we have DNS/instance for SystemName.
