Hello Kamlakar,
The zone hostname is set to the first host name specified
with the -I flag. If no network interface is provided
with the -I flag, the zone name is used for the host
name.
Here again is the usage of the -I flag:
-I "<IP Address>|<Interface>|<Netmask>|<Host name>",
Here is the excerpt from the script that shows you this
logic:
netif="NONE { hostname=${zonename} }"
if [ -n "${zoneip[0]}" ]
then
netif="PRIMARY { hostname=${zoneipname[0]} \
ip_address=${zoneip[0]} protocol_ipv6=no }"
fi
Hope you have a blessed day!
Brad
