Can't enforce Hostname

Support License
#1

Hey there!

I have an issue in regards to the hostname of the machine. Due to deploying Duplicacy with a Kubernetes Cluster I am unable to enforce a specific hostname for the running pod, therefore the pod gets a different hostname everytime the machine reboots.
I also can’t deploy the pod as a statefulSet due to limitations in the current TrueNas Scale build.
Is there any way I can circumvent this hostname issue?

Due to this problem my licences.json looks something like this:

    "duplicacy-ix-chart-559ffc6fcf-tfc49": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-57965d78ff-5755m": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-5f8cc596f5-srkzd": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-6d454cbd94-mrcxk": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-6d454cbd94-pk58k": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-6d454cbd94-sx4gd": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-75968b9bb8-p6c9d": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-789489d9fd-mtcqk": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-789489d9fd-rdmts": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-7cfb7cbd7f-5vq9t": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"
    },
    "duplicacy-ix-chart-858bdb96c8-w6lzs": {
        "license": "xx",
        "signature": "xx"

Is there a way to assign a fixed hostname to each pod?

#3

Sadly, there is not.

#4

So I guess this issue is not getting resolved then?

The actual issue here is relying on hostname for licensing. Prior discussion: Invalid or expired Web-UI license after reboot (Backups were working fine earlier today, and my license is valid well into 2022) - #8 by gchen.

If you can’t keep the same hostname, then you won’t be able to use the web GUI. I do not want to remove the hostname check.
