Join cluster to a group fails with no apparent errors when cluster name matches hostname or a part of FQDN

Issue
When a join operation is invoked through RKM Appliance Operations Console (/rkmawa) => Operations tab => Cluster option, the web page shows some messages with a final line saying that a queue job has been made. There are no further messages or error indications on the cluster being joined to another group.
The primary node of the existing cluster (say ABC) to which the new cluster (say PROD) is being joined to, shows a message similar to the following in a log file /opt/rsa/cluster/logs/join_cluster.<date>.<hour>.log (even though the new cluster name PROD does not exist in /opt/rsa/cluster/master.cluster.info):
Cluster already exists. Not adding PROD.
