> In a vmware deployment on cloudstack, if the vm.instancename.flag is set to true, and a displayname is supplied during VM creation, the displayname simply gets appended to the internal name i-x-y of that VM in vCenter. The expected behaviour is this:
> If the vm.instancename.flag is set to false (default), there is no change in current behavior:
> 1. If hostname isn't supplied, it is set to the uuid.
> 2. If displayname is supplied, it shows up in the GUI. If not, it is set to the internal VM name i-x-y-VM.
> If the vm.instancename.flag is set to true:
> 1. If hostname is not supplied, and displayname is supplied, set hostname to displayname, and set the instance name as it appears on vCenter also, to the displayname.
> 2. If hostname is not supplied, and displayname is also not supplied, set hostname to uuid, but set internal name of the VM as it appears on vCenter to i-x-y-VM as is done currently.
> 3. If hostname is supplied, set the instance name as it appears on vCenter to this hostname.
