Cloth crash when name lookup failed when celery is triggered by eventlet

I have a celery task to run a sudo command on a remote machine using a tag:

@app.task(soft_time_limit=600)
def run_puppet_agent(hostname):
    try:
        fabric_client = Fabric(hostname)
        result = fabric_client.run_command('puppet agent -t', True, True)
        if result.return_code == 0 or result.return_code == 2:
                return True, 'Puppet agent run successfully'
        else:
            raise Exception('Command %s run failed with a non zero or non-2 error code, '
                            '0 and 2 are status codes for successful puppet runs, returned     code %s'
                            % ('sudo puppet agent -t', result.return_code))
    except SoftTimeLimitExceeded:
        raise Exception('Puppet agent run took more than 600 seconds')
    except Exception as e:
        #run_puppet_agent.retry(args=[hostname], countdown=20)
        LOG.info('')
        raise Exception('Puppet agent failed with error message %s' % e.message)

      

        
        
        
      

    

if I manage celery like:

celery -A phantom.celery.manage worker --loglevel=info

      

        
        
        
      

    

it works great !! But when I run workers with eventlet like:

celery -A phantom.celery.manage worker --loglevel=info -P eventlet -c 15

      

        
        
        
      

    

This is terribly bad and gives me this exception:

FYI: I have other tasks that have different HTTP API calls and hence although eventlet would have helped me not to work in this case
