CentOS 7 customisation fails

Hello all of you,

I have a serious problem with customising CentOS 7 host and domain name. When I am trying to customise it, everything is alright, there is no error. However, when the process is complete the name is still localhost.localdomain. The problem does not occur in Ubuntu or CentOS 6.5. Please help me to find workaround or to fix that issue. Meanwhile, I am using VMWare Management API and obviously, the same issue is there.

Thanks in advance,

S

Hi,

CentOS 7 is not yet officially supported. That said, it essentially works the same way as RHEL 7 which is already supported on 5.1u3 and 5.5u2. The workaround is described at centos7 - From vSphere 5.5 - Deploying Centos 7 from template ignores customizations - Server Fault

Thanks,

Andrii
