Awesome fix! I am facing this problem right now on my builds... When this PR will be merged? |
It looks like it won't be that soon. If it helps we are using it like that: - name: Start EC2 runner
uses: kimetrica/ec2-github-runner@set-unique-name-in-UserData-script |
|
We are also running in the same issue, it would be great to see this merged soon |

Hi, we were running into issues where newly created instances weren't able to register with Github as runners, because by default the hostname is used as
--name, and AWS was reusing hostnames from our IP range.This can be fixed by setting the name explicitly, to something that is unique.
I think
--name $(hostname)-$(uuidgen)should work well.Fixes #128
