I'm new at Zenoss, and just taking my first steps with it 
it took a few hours to get it up and running, 

amongst the issues I came across was that I wanted to avoid the 
"localhost.localdomain" as the hostname in Zenoss of the Zenoss server itself: 


in order to correct that before the installation, it requires a simple change 
to one of the install scripts : 

in /opt/zenoss/bin/install-functions.sh

change the line with 
Code:
ZOPE_HOST=




> # adds localhost as a device via the web UI
> add_localhost_device()
> {
>     ZOPE_HOST=localhost.localdomain
>     HOST_CLASS_PATH="/Server/Linux"
>     
> URL="http://${ZOPE_HOST}:${ZOPE_LISTEN_PORT}/zport/dmd/DeviceLoader/loadDevice?deviceName=${ZOPE_HOST}&devicePath=${HOST_CLASS_PATH}";
> 
>     # add localhost as a device
>     wget -O /dev/null \
>         --user=${ZOPE_USERNAME} \
>         --password=${ZOPE_PASSWORD} \
>         ${URL} 
> 
> }



to


> # adds localhost as a device via the web UI
> add_localhost_device()
> {
>     ZOPE_HOST=$HOSTNAME
>     HOST_CLASS_PATH="/Server/Linux"
>     
> URL="http://${ZOPE_HOST}:${ZOPE_LISTEN_PORT}/zport/dmd/DeviceLoader/loadDevice?deviceName=${ZOPE_HOST}&devicePath=${HOST_CLASS_PATH}";
> 
>     # add localhost as a device
>     wget -O /dev/null \
>         --user=${ZOPE_USERNAME} \
>         --password=${ZOPE_PASSWORD} \
>         ${URL} 
> 
> }




I'm surprised that something like the hostname is hardcoded in an installation 
script. is there any reason to??
