Hi Duncan,
That's annoying, and surprising! Is there no hostname set at all, or a
non-unique hostname?
Do you know if the previous max length of 30 is the cut-off for hostname
being set on the VM? Maybe we could choose a number significantly bigger
than 30 but still not too big?
For Ambari, does it need a hostname that can be resolved from other VMs
or just a non-empty hostname?
(in some clouds for some apps, we ended up running a DNS server so that
hostnames would all resolve).

Without a maximum name length (see

Under these circumstances Ambari refuses to install.
Should I implement something specific to the ambari entities so that they
can work round this or do we need to find a more general fix?
I'd really like to keep the long names as then I can tell this difference
between my vms and those provisioned by Duncan.
