Yeah, that is perhaps related in one way or another.

Other than that: There is a CCE constructor that polls the System object
to find the hostname and FQDN of the server and then it uses systemctl
to set that as the server name.

So generally the server name will be whatever you have configured in the
TCP/IP settings of the server.
