Hi Igor, 

Thanks for your explain.

Hmm... In such Scalr behavior with GCE, the cloud resource name (also 
network name) and OS hostname are inconsistent or have UUID names for DNS 
resolving?
As I understand, to avoid it Scalr can provide the DNS provisioning layer?

But in my case, I would like to use Scalr as pure IaaS management system 
(AWS/GCE) with my SaltStack or any other configuration management.
I would like to replace the "salt-cloud" with lot profiles and maps to 
Scalr.


P.S. 
Thanks Igor for good product.
