Note in my recreate that the nic doesn't change: 2001:db8::7, 172.24.4.6
So I think changing the hostname during rebuild, at least by default, is wrong. ** Changed in: nova Status: Incomplete => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!

This means if I want to change the name of an instance, and then rebuild it, it will utilize the original name as set in hostname. Renaming an instance name should also update the other fields.
