I was making a small cluster for testing based on several ubuntu VM's.
I just installed the minimal ubuntu host, configured it and the copied several times. After that I needed to change the hostnames on those ubuntu hosts, to distinguish them somehow :)
First of all the current name of the host:
To change it
Doesn't work for me (you may try if it works for you)

sysctl kernel.hostname

cat "new-host-name" > /etc/hostname
