I work with large numbers of servers and WHM interfaces and it's important to know what server I'm in! It would be very useful if the top bar would just show the system's hostname next to the OS version and cPanel version. That would be quicker than needing to navigate to the Change Hostname page to find out the hostname.
Show Entire Hostname In Top Bar Of WHM
Open Discussion
It would be great if WHM could show the entire hostname in the top bar of the main screen.
Currently it only shows the first part of the hostname minus the relevant domain.
We run mutliple servers and especially when logging in to DNS servers it is easy to be unaware of which cluster you are in.
e.g. we have dns1.xxx.com then dns1.yyy.com & dns1.zzz.com
When we are logged in we only see dns1 written in the top bar. It would be great if it could show dns1.xxx.com etc
I like this idea 
cPanel, WebHost Manager and WHM are registered trademarks of cPanel, L.L.C. for providing its computer software that facilitates the management and configuration of Internet web servers.
The hostname is already displayed in the top bar, in between the OS version and the cPanel version. In the attached screen snippet I've indicated the hostname from one of my servers.

Ah I'm not sure how I missed that one! But what about the full hostname like ken.server.com?

with a large number of servers to admin just having the short name is an issue.
oops I rebooted the wrong server is not what my boss likes to hear!!
