Re: Instance Names

[Maurice Lawler]

Hello,

I did just find that CLOUDSTACk-778, reviewing it it seems to me that does not quite answer my question; unless I am missing an obvious point, which I will not let, I find myself doing that more then I would like.

URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-778

Is this correct?

You suggest that I should leave my mistake as is. If you are unsure of the issues it may cause upon instance rebooting, I just thought it would be easy to just update a line in the database as it was mentioned to me, in the vm_instance table...

You can edit the display name via API or the UI's edit button, but

that only changes what shows up in the UI, not the name of the host

itself (e.g. when you log in and do 'hostname'). To change the actual

name in the vm_instance table, column 'name'. I'm not entirely sure

what the repercussions of that are.

Greetings,

I'm hoping someone can point me into the right direction, I have

provisioned an instanced; however, I failed to create a name for it.

Now in my list of instances, I see the UUID and not a 'custom' name so to speak.

I'm sure this can easily be manipulated via the database, however; I

am looking through docs etc, unsure where to make changes.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciate!
