Navigate to your global settings and search for 'instance.name'. There you can append whatever you like, the default value is 'VM'. That¹s where you get the instance name 'I-<account_id>-<vm_instance_id>-VM'. Since this is a global, all vm's managed by the cloudstack instance will reflect this. -- Æ
