[OpenStack-Infra] Hostnames

Hi,

It seems that every time we boot a new server, it either randomly has a
hostname of foo, or foo.openstack.org.  And maybe that changes between
the first boot and second.

The result of this is that our services which require that they know
their hostname (which is a lot, especially the complicated ones) end up
randomly working or not.  We waste time repeating the same diagnosis and
manual fix each time.

What is the cause of this, and how do we fix this correctly?
