Michael are you running OpenShift on AWS?

https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible-contrib/tree/master/reference-architecture/aws-ansible
is the AWS reference architecture and it does use openshift-ansible once
the infrastructure is built, but it uses a dynamic inventory.

It’s not an option for us not to use the aws reference architecture to
install OpenShift as it would be rather painful as we’re relying heavily on
cloud formation and the dynamic inventory.

While ansible is running the hostnames are correct, so I’m suspecting that
maybe OpenShift itself is detecting the cloud provider and overriding the
hostname or maybe the ansible playbook is doing something similar. Inside
the ansible openshift_facts python library I saw some custom hostname
handling for Google Cloud, but not for AWS, but it made me suspicious
thinking it might be hiding somewhere else.
