in its current behavior cloud-init does not set the hostname on FreeBSD servers to it's FQDN if it is given. As per [1] FreeBSD Man Page for rc.conf the hostname variable in rc.conf should be set to FQDN.

This bug is believed to be fixed in cloud-init in 18.2. If this is still a problem for you, please make a comment and set the state back to New

Thank you.
