Should droplet/host names be unique across all of DO?

Posted on August 16, 2019

For example, I have created a droplet with a name/hostname of app001. Does this mean that app001 references my droplet ip across all of the digitalocean intranet, or are these hostnames self contained to specific projects?

Hello,

Yes you are correct, those hostname are self contained to specific projects.
