[Openstack-operators] Custom VM FQDNs and DNS integration

What I would like to see in terms of the FQDNs of my VMs is something like this:
%{hostname}.%{tenant-name}.example.com
Does anyone know the easiest way to make this possible? From my browsing, the tenant-name part doesn’t seem like a native capability. I had been wondering if achieving this was going to require a post-boot setting. For instance, using cloud-init to pull info from the metadata service to set the FQDN. But I don’t even see where the tenant name is part of the metadata. Then again, I’m not so familiar with these corners of OpenStack.
In terms of DNS integration, if I could make Nova create the FQDNs I want, then I assume I could get Designate to do the right thing. But if I end up setting the VMs’ FQDNs as a post-boot function, then it seems like I would need a dynamic DNS update to happen….and probably not run Designate. Am I on the right path? What are others running?
