# Host

The IP address or host name of the machine where the Content component that stores the data index is installed.

NOTE: This parameter is meaningful only in a stand-alone Category or Community component, not in a unified IDOL Server configuration.

IMPORTANT: If you set GSSServiceName, you must set `Host` to a fully qualified domain name (that is, for GSS authentication you cannot use `localhost`, an IP address, or a host without the domain name, even if these values resolve to the correct server).

Type: | String
Default: |
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | DataDRE
Example: | `Host=12.3.4.56`
