Incorporating the following info: • This node edits the DNS hostname of the computer. • If using the %RAND:x% or %SERIAL% macros, the new name is limited to 15 characters • If the serial number generated from the %SERIAL% macro is too long, the serial number will be truncated from the beginning of the serial number sequence, not the end. (e.g. 123ABCDEF456 --> CDEF456) • If the new name is a constant string (i.e. not using any of the macros) the new name can be up to 63 characters long • Validation for accepted characters are based on the SetComputerNameEx function: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/sysinfoapi/nf-sysinfoapi-setcomputernameexa • This node does not work properly for hybrid-joined AAD/AD devices (it only works for fully AAD joined devices) I would love feedback and additional edits on how to make the proposed changes more customer-doc-friendly. Thanks!
