Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Radek Vykydal 2016-05-26 14:07:35 UTC

We have updated GUI for host name configuration in scope of the original BZ. The changes should be apparent from the pull request https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/643 comment. There is also a link to screencast with new UI - https://rvykydal.fedorapeople.org/apply_hostname_in_network_spoke_button.webm

Comment 5 Radek Vykydal 2016-08-26 11:04:35 UTC

The screenshot seems to be outdated (some in-development version). The current state is:

Comment 6 Radek Vykydal 2016-08-26 11:17:21 UTC

We should mention what is the "Apply" button for:

The host name configured for installed system can be applied to installer environment with "Apply" button.

We should also add this note to the text:

The value "localhost.localdomain" means that no specific static host name for target system is configured and the actual host name of installed system would be configured during process of network configuration (eg. by NetworkManager via DHCP or DNS services).

I think we should add this information as well.
