Description Philipp Hahn

2015-10-23 15:24:06 CEST

When installing a new UCS system, the system gets a random name ucs-$RANDOM.$DNSDOMAIN.
Instead we should suggest
- "dc0"  for master
- "dcX" for backup (and slaves)
- "serverX" for member servers
- "ucsX" for base systems

The hostname should be selected for overwriting when that page is first shown, so the admin just has to type the now name if she wants to change it.

Rational:
- the random name is not nice.
- we should suggest something better than "master" and "backup", as this will break with "backup2master"

The name in the UCS manual are inconsistent, as different instances have been used to create the screenshots, which have different names each time.
