Hi, we were running into issues where newly created instances weren't able to register with Github as runners, because by default the hostname is used as
--name
, and AWS was reusing hostnames from our IP range.This can be fixed by setting the name explicitly, to something that is unique.
I think
--name $(hostname)-$(uuidgen)
should work well.Fixes #128
