Dear colleagues,
I'm using DNS Integration and just faced an issue - after renaming instance, I can't bind port to the instance using new name:
1) I've created intances with name 'devel' 2) then I renamed it to devel ((openstack server set --name packager devel) 3) when binding port with dns_name using new name ('packager' in my case), the following error appear: ERROR nova.api.openstack.wsgi PortNotUsableDNS: Port c3a92cf6-b49b-4570-b69b-0c23af1d1f94 not usable for instance 6aa78bd5-099e-4878-a5ac-90262505a924. Value packager assigned to dns_name attribute does not match instance's hostname devel
and yes, record in DB still uses an old hostname:
mysql> select display_name from instances where hostname='devel'; +--------------+
display_name |
+--------------+
packager |
+--------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)
and hostname remains the same (initial) regardless of any changes to display_name.
I'm on Rocky. Is it bug or feature and are there ways to work around this? i think you should be able to change the display name but i would not expect that display name to change

Thank you.
