Set p2v.local as hostname for the p2v disk image, so it will be fixed, instead of whatever is set in the used templates. This is also somewhat important during the distribution update, and installation of our packages: there may be distribution packages actually using the hostname to initialize stuff (e.g. configuration values), and thus the unset value "(none)" triggers errors. The additional command to set the hostname is for the appliance itself: the hostname will be set on the running kernel, which is the appliance own, so getting it later on with hostname(1) works. --- virt-p2v-make-disk.in | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/virt-p2v-make-disk.in b/virt-p2v-make-disk.in index 1bec4e3..132211d 100644 --- a/virt-p2v-make-disk.in +++ b/virt-p2v-make-disk.in @@ -233,11 +233,16 @@ fi # Run virt-builder.
