Andreas,

Adam will shoot us for "not having a sensible naming scheme" but I'm also a device.pop person, and I actually have the same issue somewhat - I'll roll it into a not-recommended semi-undocumented config option in the next few days (if I don't forget) so you don't have to patch the source to get what you want.

It's not changeable as config option, but located here:
/opt/observium/includes/common.php

Search for line 149:
function shorthost($hostname, $len=12)

And change 12 to 30, or something that fit's your needs...

THIS IS A QUICK HACK, COULD BREAK SVN, NO SUPPORT.
