The nodeName value overrides this, however if you are relying on cloud
provider integration there are limitations, see below.

f you are willing to give up the native cloud provider integration (ability
to leverage EBS volumes as PVs), then you can override this using the
openshift_hostname variable when installing the cluster. At least as of
Kubernetes/Origin 1.2, the nodeName value in the node config needed to
match the private dns name of the host.
