sudo changeip -checkhostname doesn't work under yosemite

Hello

On Yosemite I can't get a usefull respond when I use the CLI Command sudo changeip -checkhostname?

On Yosemite I got the response:

Password:

dirserv:success = "success"

On older server (Mavericks and lower ) i got this response:

Password:

Primary address = 172.23.1.152

Current HostName = test3.abc.lan

DNS HostName = test3.abc.lan

The names match. There is nothing to change.

dirserv:success = "success"

Is their a way to get more usefull infos under Yosemite?

Mac mini, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), Server 4

Unfortunately as others have also reported and I have also seen this is the new behaviour for this command, the -v option also does not help and in fact does not work along side the -checkhostname option.

A quite unnecessary and unwanted change. 😟
