Hello Everyone,

we want to use cloud-init to automate the install of new VMs as linked clones in Proxmox and already have a working configuration.
But if we want to set the VM name as the hostname on first boot it doesn't change it.

VM OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Proxmox Version: 6.4

is this behaviour known as a bug or is there something else we have to do before this is working?
I didn't find this in the forum before.

Thanks for Replies
