Problem with a WebCenter VM template hostname

The beauty of the Oracle VM templates is of course the ease with which you create a new machine. But then it has to work, or at least it must be customizable.

I have created a new machine from a WebCenter VM template.

While I am a Bond fan I'd rather see my own name for the machine. Let's see how this can be corrected.
