Is there a way to change a cluster name or a node name in ECE?
The thing is that the autogenerated name is being logged into monitoring cluster and having many ES clusters with these guid names leads to confusion when working with Kibana Monitoring tab since it's hard to identify which cluster the id belongs to. It would be better to use a human-friendly name instead.
We created an ingest pipeline to add the real cluster name to each and every logged record so that at least our dashboards show meaningful name, but I'd prefer an out of box solution as this one might have some serious performance implications.
in the meantime you can use the direct ES-level support as linked above as a slightly inconvenient workaround

ps (On the general "cluster alias" issue currently the workaround that people use is to put nginx in front of the proxies and map from the aliases to the cluster ids in there)
