As noted this isn't a bug, so marking it invalid. Would require a spec
to change this behavior, but I doubt we'd do it, since nova shouldn't
have access to the guest once it's created. You'd have to rebuild the
server if you wanted to change the hostname in the guest.

** Changed in: nova

Title:
  Hostname of server is not updated when update instance name

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Currently we can update instance name and description using update API,
  but it only performs update in data in DB, the hostname in VM is still
  unchanged.

  1. create a server with name 'old'
  2. update the name of server to 'new'
  3. get the details of server from nova, the name has been updated
  4. restart (stop and then start)/reboot the nova server
  5. login the server, and found the hostname has not been udpate to 'new'
