When you bootstrap the VM-Series firewall with
dhcp-accept-server-hostname=yes
in the
init-cfg.txt
file, then subsequently update the hostname for the VM-Series firewall, the hostname does not update in the
<namespace>_dimension
CloudWatch metrics.
Workaround:
To change the hostname after boot up, use one of the following methods to prevent the firewall from accepting the hostname sent by the DHCP server:
  • CLI command:
    dhcp-accept-server-hostname=no
  • init-cfg.txt
    file: Remove
    dhcp-accept-server-hostname=yes
    , or set
    dhcp-accept-server-hostname=no
    .
