How to change computer name in ubunutu

While installing Hadoop for multi-cluster , i needed to re-name machines, so that each virtual machine can be called differently so for this i did following steps
  • Open the terminal in UBUNTU
  • sudo gedit /etc/hostname
  • you will be prompted for password, enter that
    • Editor will be opened where you can insert the name you like 
    • Save it
  • and now Restart the system to apply the changes
  • You can watch the steps in videos
