Hi all,

I was wondering about the following case (and am not sure if its been addressed 
in folsom).

At yahoo, instead of the default hostname that seems to be automatically 
established (ie 'server-XYZ.novalocal' was in essex) we were wondering if there 
is anything in folsom that say lets us override that generation with either a 
module (or a subclass) or a new function without having to patch nova code. 
Sometimes we want a default hostname of a different format (as probably do 
others) and I just am not sure if quantum is directing this default hostname, 
or if nova still is, or if its some mix of both (the metadata + cloud-init can 
affect the hostname as well, so perhaps the configdrive work should be the only 
one establish a 'real' hostname?).

I have found the following pieces of hostname related code but am not sure if 
this is all the places that make hostnames :-)

Is this the only place nowadays?? Is there something in quantum also?

Thx much, just trying to track this down.
