Good point. What we can do is use a placeholder ${nodeName:default}  
and if one specifies it through -DnodeName will be taken into account.
It's much easier going through logs and looking for nodes named:  
"aaaa", "bbb" and "ccc" rather than host:port1, host2:port2 etc.
Actually we even have a script that does that, so that we can debug  
logs more easily :)
