Hello,

the point below has been buried at the end one of a previous thread. So feel
free to ignore it if you find it irrelevant.

With systemd-239 on linux 4.18.0 (CentOS 8.1), why does hostnamectl --static
set-hostname <name> instantly sets the transient hostname to <name> *only*
when <name> is not the current static hostname ?

There's a shortcut in place: if you change a hostname to what it is
already set to things are NOPs, and won't generate security incidents
and so on.

Ok, get it. Thanks.
