    Hi,

    The FQDN/hostname to be assigned to the appliance must be resolvable through DNS or hosts file. This is why you're not able to set the hostname.
    You don't have to perform factory reset at this point. Follow the instructions below:

    Network> Hostname Set nbapp-pri.home.lab

    Bahadir.

    Lets know the outcome.
