Hello,

If you want cloudbase-init to not set the hostname to the instance name, you should remove the HostnamePlugin from enabled plugins.

What do you mean by "I'm sending "hostname" metadata value to the VM and the password."?

AFAIK when you boot an instance using nova boot (nova boot --meta admin_pass="<password>") only the password is visible in the guest metadata.

UPDATE: all the meta tags sent from "nova boot" are present in the guest metadata.
