action #76786
Updated by okurz over 3 years ago
## Motivation
See https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/75445#note-5 . As a fallback if the initial network configuration takes a bit we should have the static hostnames properly configured. This likely also makes logs a bit more readable when the hostname in the log is something we "know"
## Acceptance criteria
* **AC1:** All salt nodes currently covered by gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa and gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa have a static hostname configured with salt
## Suggestions
* Read https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/75445#note-5 and research how a static hostname can be configured with salt, e.g. https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/states/all/salt.states.network.html#retain-settings
* Apply it as rule for all our hosts, at least for all osd workers, probably based on grains or pillar data
## Further details
Currently some hosts have a static hostname defined that can interfer with operations
