Image upgrades could cause the system to boot with an older system name format that is not DNS compliant. To prevent problems with
dynamic DNS after an image upgrade, the system name will automatically be converted to a DNS compliant system name.
The rules of conversion of older system names are:
•
If the length is greater than 63 then the string is truncated. (This will not happen since the system name is anyway limited to 32 bytes)
• All invalid characters at the beginning or end of the string are replaced with the character 'X'.
• All other invalid characters are replaced with hyphens.
