name of virtual machine and hostname

Good morning, I would like to ask you an information. After I have installed ovirt, I have created a pool of vm with name like centos-?? (from 1 to 20) and then ovirt generated 20 vm with name centos-1, centos-2, centos-3 etc. etc. The problem is when the vm starts the hostname is not the same of the vm name in ovirt but is the same name of the template. Is it possible to make sure that the name of vm and the hostname is identical? Best regard Nicola Gentile

I guess that the way to go about it would be to use the cloudinit integration. I've not tried it myself, but: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cloud-Init_Integration states that setting the hostname was one of the planned features when the integration was designed.

yes this works, if you do not need more functionality than cloud init can provide (I must write some patches for it, when I got the time..) Am 27.06.2014 11:18, schrieb Antoni Segura Puimedon:

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. Care to report the bug on bugzilla? Thank you, Shahar Havivi.

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

Good morning, sorry if I reply only now. Let me explain better. Once generated the vms, the hostname of the vms are the same of the template, but I wish it was centos-01, centos-02, etc. Is it possible? Thanks, Nicola 2014-06-29 15:43 GMT+02:00 Moti Asayag <masayag@redhat.com>:

Yes, you can use cloud-init to set some parameters for each VM including the hostname. You should install the cloud-init rpm on your VMs (it would probably better to do it on the template one) and than you can set the parameters for each VM from 'Initial run' tab under 'Advanced option'.
