Description Marius Cornea 2015-10-30 01:50:09 UTC

Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_CloudForms/3.2/html/Installing_CloudForms_on_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_OpenStack_Platform/sect-Configuring_CloudForms.html

Section Number and Name: 
2.2. Advanced Configuration Settings

Describe the issue: 
Setting the Hostname is actually required beacuse smartstate analysis will fail if the cfme appliance doesn't have a valid fqdn set. 

Suggestions for improvement: 
Mention that setting a valid hostname is mandatory.

Additional information: 
Relevant info about this issue can be found in BZ#1221707

Assigning to Shikha for review.

Shikha - a note or step of some kind that calls this out will need to be added to the three installation guides. The source for the section should be the same for each, so we should be able to copy across any changes from one to the others 1:1.

Comment 3 Shikha 2015-11-09 06:06:28 UTC

Hi Andrew,
I've added an Important admonition in Configuring CFME chapter of the following guides:
1) Installing_CloudForms_on_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_OpenStack_Platform
2) Installing_CloudForms_on_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization
3) Installing_CloudForms_on_VMware_vSphere

Please review and accept the following merge request: https://gitlab.cee.redhat.com/rhci-documentation/docs-Red_Hat_CloudForms/merge_requests/68

Regards,
Shikha
