Setting the host name via cloud-init is currently supported - you can set it
via the Add/Edit VM via the "Initial Run" section or try to run-once the VM
and look at the same "initial Run" section.
Please note that if you do Edit a VM that already run ie already initialized
oVirt engine will not send the cloud-init data, you will need to use run-once
dialog.
What you reported looks like a bug - the VM name should be the hostname and
not the template name.
Unless Nicola referred to the template's host name, from which the vm pool was
created. It might be if the template wasn't sealed.
Nicola, could you clarify what did you mean by "template name" which appears as
the "host name" ?
Thanks,
Moti
Care to report the bug on bugzilla?
Thank you,
