are you asking where the hostname comes from, or the resource name in rancher?
a
I guess the resource name in rancher. Under Cluster Management -> Clusters -> <new_cluster> -> Machines. The "Name" there is not my ec2 instance hostname
Our actual ec2 instance hostnames are
ip-<ip address>.our.domain
but we still have DNS entries that resolve to
ip-<ip_address>.ec2.internal
Actually I apologize, looking at RKE1 the "Name" is similar it's the "Node" is that has our shortened hostname of just
ip-<ip_address>
The Node portion hasn't populated yet due to some provisioning issues and I thought that might be a problem, but I guess not. Sorry disregard
