[Bug 1375252] Re: [SRU] Hostname change is not preserved across reboot on Azure Ubuntu VMs

[Joe Clifford]

Apologies for the tardy feedback. Many thanks to all involved,
gratefully and much appreciated. From my perspective, this issue is now
resolved.

I've just tried this on a freshly deployed Trusty VM in Azure -  a
change to the hostname with 'hostnamectl' is now preserved when the VM
is rebooted.

I would like to point out though that, if not editing the /etc/hostname
file directly, the 'hostnamectl' command must be used to set the
hostname; using the 'hostname' command doesn't work (presumably because
the hostname command doesn't change /etc/hostname).

Joe
