Hi,

I have see this :

https://ask.cloudbase.it/question/103...

but in my case it doesn't work.

I'm trying to deply a windows 10 (20H2) image. but the hostname is DESKTOP-xxxxx

I can see in the cloudbase-init-unattend.log : cloudbaseinit.utils.hostname [-] Setting hostname: myhostname

but when I first log on the vm, I can see that hostname is still DESKTOP-xxxx

I have verify in the unattend.xml, the cloudbase init execution is in the specialize step.

Hello,

This issue is a known one and you need a workaround presented here: https://ask.cloudbase.it/question/103... .

The hostname is changed by Windows 10 internal sysprep implementation and you have to remove the SetHostnamePlugin from the cloudbase-init-unattend.conf .

Thank you,

Adrian Vladu

Sorry I don't understand

If I remove the sethostnameplugin from the unattend it will not set the hostname I want ?

I have try to put the unattend.xml like in the workaround but it seems that it is not executed (no unattend log)

It will set the hostname during the service run, provided that you have not set in cloudbase-init.conf a custom list of plugins.
