Adding an entry to the hosts file should solve the forward/reverse name lookup issue.  It can be done in the SL1 UI under System > Customize > Host Files or using the collection CLI to edit the file /etc/hosts.  There is also an API if this needs to be done at scale and automated.

I'd recommend including both the hostname and the fully qualified domain name as follows:

10.1.0.10 hostname hostname.domain.com

If you are still getting the forward/reverse resolution error, then please open a support case for assistance.
