The __target_host variable contains whatever a user specified.
To allow the user to rely on a variable that contains the hostname (without domain), the variable __target_host_name should be exported, with only containing everything until excluding the first dot.

Domain handling can be done by the user better than from the cdist core, for instance by adding conf/manifest/domain which contains

domain="my.local.domain.example.org"

I think we do not need to fix this anymore - shell can handle this easily.

good point. maybe we need to check if it is an IPv4 address and if so, keep it as it is

What if a user provides an IP address rather than a hostname?
