OCP 4.x IPI installation fails if the hostname of a node is more than 64 characters since it is setting FQDN as the hostname for the node.
Issue
- Baremetal IPI Installation fails if the hostname of a node is >64 chars since it is setting FQDN as the hostname for the node.
- This is because of HOST_NAME_MAX<=64 requirements set by RHCOS. Set hostname fails during RHCOS installation and the node ends up having hostname set to localhost.
