Hi,

Not quick sure which "name" of the instance you are refereeing to.

Do you mean when you open XenCenter it shows you a different name?

Thanks,
John

Subject: [Openstack] how to let the instance name (instance-xxx) equal to the hostname of the instance (chosen by the user)??

Hi all,

Due to some requirements, I have to modify openstack source code in order to let the name of the instance (in Xen Server) equal to the hostname of the instance (chosen by the user).
Is it possible to do that by only configuring openstack? If yes, could you please guide me to the suitable flag?
If not, could you please guide me to the right python files that need to be changed.
I use the folsom release, with XCP as a virtualization technology.

Thank you,
Afef
