The set_hostname Utility  Prindi artikkel

Overview:

The /usr/local/cpanel/bin/set_hostname utility updates the server’s hostname and performs all of the necessary actions to apply this change throughout the system. You can use this utility to change the server’s hostname during a process that requires you to call the binary (for example, automated cloning processes).

You can also use the following methods to change the server’s hostname:

  • Use WHM’s Change Hostname interface (WHM >> Home >> Networking Setup >> Change Hostname).

  • Use WHM API 1’s sethostname function.

If you use either of these methods, you do not need to run this utility.

Important:

  • Do not select a hostname that begins with www or a number, or a hostname that ends with a hyphen (-).

  • You must use a fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) that uniquely identifies the server (for example, hostname.example.com or hostname.example.co.uk).

  • Do not choose a hostname that a cPanel account on your server will use.

  • Do not choose a potential service subdomain as a hostname (for example, cpanel.example.com or whm.example.com).

  • Do not select a socially-unacceptable hostname. The hostname will appear in mail headers.

  • Only use lowercase, Latin-script letters in hostnames.

Note:
If your server currently uses a subdomain of cprapid.com as a hostname, we strongly encourage you to replace it with an existing domain or purchase a new domain to generate a hostname. Using your own domain name and hostname will help establish your company’s brand. For more information, read our Automatically-Issued Hostnames documentation.

Run the script

To use the /usr/local/cpanel/bin/set_hostname utility, run the following command as the root user, where newhostname.example.com represents your new hostname:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/set_hostname newhostname.example.com [option]

You can specify the following option for the /usr/local/cpanel/bin/set_hostname utility:

  • --help — View utility information on the command line.

When you run this command, the set_hostname utility performs the following actions:

  • It updates the hostname in the /etc/sysconfig/network file, and in the kernel.
  • It updates the domain.
  • It updates the server’s Apache® configuration.
  • It updates the cPanel license.
  • It updates cPHulk.
  • It restarts MySQL®.
  • It rebuilds cPanel & WHM’s global cache.
  • It updates the FTP, Exim, Dovecot®, and cPanel SSL certificates.

Example

To change the server’s hostname to hostname.example.com, run the following command:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/set_hostname hostname.example.com

If the update succeeds, the utility produces the following output:
