* Get a list of dependent DNS-names for a given DNS-name/IP-address.
* Dependent DNS-names fall into the same fault domain which must be
* taken into account when placing replicas. This is intended to be used for
* cross node group dependencies when node groups are not sufficient to
* distinguish data nodes by fault domains. In practice, this is needed when
* a compute server runs VMs which use shared storage (as opposite to
* directly attached storage). In this case data nodes fall in two different
* fault domains. One fault domain is defined by a compute server and
* the other is defined by storage. With node groups we can group data nodes
* either by server fault domain or by storage fault domain. However one of
* the fault domains cannot be handled and there we need to define cross node
* group dependencies. These dependencies are applied in block placement
* polices which ensure that no two replicas will be on two dependent nodes.
* @param name - host name or IP address of a data node. Input host name
* parameter must take a value of dfs.datanode.hostname config value if this
* config property is set. Otherwise FQDN of the data node is used.
* @return list of dependent host names. If dfs.datanode.hostname config
* property is set, then its value must be returned.
* Otherwise, FQDN is returned.
