[SOLVED] Rename container proxmox 5

[Valerio Pachera]

Hi all, I'm testing proxmox 5 beta 2.
I created a new container named 'test' (id 102).
How can I rename the vm?

Select the DNS panel, then change Hostname

Hello, I have a question about that. I have proxmox "Virtual Environment 5.4-3", when I change the hostname by "dev.exemple.com" the hostname are ok on the proxmox web interface, but when I log in with ssh on my server I have "root@dev:~#". I have 3 dev environnements, I wondering if it's possible to change that "dev" name ? I tried to edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts by

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
# --- BEGIN PVE ---
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx dev.exemple.com devExemple
# --- END PVE ---

But after reboot the hosts file get back

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
# --- BEGIN PVE ---
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx dev.exemple.com dev
# --- END PVE ---

Sorry if this bumps an ancient thread, but I want to thank you for this simple response. It's 2024, I'm on Proxmox 8.2.7, and I had the same question... because when I looked at the DNS panel, my brain ignored the first row of the table thinking it was a header (like "Attribute" and "Value" or something). Just couldn't see that first table line as a table row to be read and edited. xD

Thanks again!
