Description

When i register a new client via the subscription manager, i get a wrong fqdn with some Hosts.

Even when I use the option:

--name=somehost.tld
the displayed name is still wrong.

I don't know, where Katello gets this information and it would be nice, if the displayed name is the given name.

Hi Patrick,

This behaviour is intentional since Foreman requires FQDNs.

You can override the hostname with the network.fqdn fact.

Here's an example of overriding a fact:

vim /etc/rhsm/facts/my-example.facts {"uname.machine": "x86","kernel_version": "2.6.32","physical_location": "MTV colo rack 5"}

I'm closing this issue since it's the expected behaviour.
