Yes, the hostname is properly set within the Edit Settings of the virtual appliance (vApp options). Also, the hostname of my virtual appliance is currently set to the proper name within the OS and that is because I have ensured the proper DNS entry is in our DNS server. However, I just did a test where I deleted the DNS entry for the FQDN of our Log Insight appliance from our DNS server, then if I reboot the Log Insight virtual appliance, the OS name will switch back to "localhost" because it can't find that entry in DNS.
