Hello! When provisioning a 3-node cluster I accidentally mis-named one of the nodes (e.g. storage-01 instead of storage-1). Is it possible to rename, or should I just reinstall? I tried changing the hostname through SSH and that seems to have borked things until I swapped it back and rebooted.

I resolved this problem by just reinstalling the whole system. It was still a proof of concept and didn't have anything critical relying on it, so I just moved the couple of VMs to another datastore and reinstalled.
There does not appear to be a way to rename a node once it has been installed, only replace the node with one named the same and with the same config.
