Andy Kurth resolved VCL-896.
----------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Improve method to set Linux hostname
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: VCL-896
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-896
> Project: VCL
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: vcld (backend)
> Reporter: Andy Kurth
> Assignee: Andy Kurth
> Fix For: 2.5
>
>
> The {{Linux.pm::update_public_hostname}} subroutine was reworked for VCL 2.4
> via [VCL-637|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-637]. A
> {{Linux.pm::update_hostname_file}} subroutine was added to update the
> _/etc/hostname_ file if it exists, as is the case with CentOS 7. This
> subroutine is using the echo command to create the file. It would be better
> us use {{OS.pm::create_text_file}} for consistency.
> Another improvement would be to check if the _hostnamectl_ utility exists on
> the OS. If so, use it to set the hostname instead of using the _hostname_
> command.
