Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the extended header to avoid any doubt. I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <filename>/etc/hostname</filename> file configures the
|
|
name of the local system that is set during boot using the
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sethostname</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
system call. It should contain a single newline-terminated
|
|
hostname string. Comments (lines starting with a `#') are ignored.
|
|
The hostname may be a free-form string up to 64 characters in length;
|
|
however, it is recommended that it consists only of 7-bit ASCII lower-case
|
|
characters and no spaces or dots, and limits itself to the format allowed
|
|
for DNS domain name labels, even though this is not a strict
|
|
requirement.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>You may use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>hostnamectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
to change the value of this file during runtime from the command
|
|
line. Use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
to initialize it on mounted (but not booted) system images.</para>
