- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para>The <filename>/etc/hostname</filename> file configures the
- name of the local system that is set during boot using the
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sethostname</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- system call. It should contain a single newline-terminated
- hostname string. Comments (lines starting with a `#') are ignored.
- The hostname may be a free-form string up to 64 characters in length;
- however, it is recommended that it consists only of 7-bit ASCII lower-case
- characters and no spaces or dots, and limits itself to the format allowed
- for DNS domain name labels, even though this is not a strict
- requirement.</para>
-
- <para>You may use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>hostnamectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- to change the value of this file during runtime from the command
- line. Use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- to initialize it on mounted (but not booted) system images.</para>
