Osquery uses basic SQL commands to leverage a relational data-model to describe a device.

Hi - I've made what I thought would be a really simple change to our configuration. I'm just changing the hostname decorator to reflect the computer_name rather than the DNS hostname....  I made this change via fleetctl
```  agent_options:
    config:
      decorators:
        load:
        - SELECT uuid AS host_uuid FROM system_info;
        - SELECT computer_name AS hostname FROM system_info; ```

But my fleet UI still shows the hosts with decorators ending in ".local" etc. (for home users). Is there a significant lag (24hrs maybe?) for this to take effect?

hi there! I am not sure about the UI, but I noticed that the decorators are of type `load` in the config, which usually means that those queries are only run when the config is loaded, maybe try changing them to `always` and see if that works?

hi! we do get the hostname from this query: `select * from system_info limit 1` , unless the decorator changes what's returned there, it probably won't change it

Ah so the fleet UI isn't modified by decorators - ok then that makes sense. I can just see how the output looks on the logs.
