Public bug reported: rsyslog will use the hostname that an instance had when it started when logging messages (unless it's `kill -HUP`'d). When a cloud image boots, it has the generic hostname of "ubuntu", which means that all syslog messages are for the "ubuntu" host until rsyslog restarts, or log rotation happens.
