Description
i was trying to install the official app 'Splunk add on for linux' on a recent docker image and noticed that the app is unusable,
it fails with the "hostname" command from the script $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/cpu_metric.sh.
It seems that the "hostname" command is outdated on the image release.
Any ideas how to fix?

Research direction
Start by reproducing installation of the official Splunk add on for linux on the recent Docker image, then inspect $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/cpu_metric.sh and its hostname invocation. Done means the app installs and the script runs successfully on the affected image without the reported command failure.
