Use the GCE short hostname.
Google Compute Engine fqdn hostnames are usually longer than 64 characters. This causes issues with many tools (often Java based). Note that per gethostname(2): POSIX.1-2001 guarantees that "Host names (not including the terminating null byte) are limed to HOST_NAME_MAX bytes". On Linux, HOST_NAME_MAX is defined with the value 64. LP: #1383794
