Windows Server 2016 Hostname and Password

Hi,

I'm trying to get cloudbase-init to work with my Windows Server 2016 template in a vRealize Automation environment. I have followed the below steps:

Create Template: https://blogs.vmware.com/management/2019/11/cloudbase-init-windows-initialization.html

When I follow the above link the password works but not the hostname.

I have followed https://ask.cloudbase.it/question/1036/windows-10-hostname-not-being-set/ and https://ask.cloudbase.it/question/3315/windows-10-hostname-not-set/?sort=oldest#sort-top. I have changed the unattended.xml as in https://pastebin.com/xLATygNd and removed cloudbaseinit.plugins.common.sethostname.SetHostNamePlugin from cloudbase-init-unattend.conf but nothing of this works. When I do like this I don´t get a log for cloudbase-init-unattend.log.

Can you please advise?
