[erlang-questions] Starting an Erlang node in embedded mode

[Andrew Haine]

Hi Xavier

I have done the following:

 Creating a Release Package
=> systools:make_script("myapp_rel-1").
=> systools:make_tar("myapp_rel-1").

Creating a Target System
- Start Erlang/OTP from the directory where the mysystem.rel file resides:
(which is in the "releases" folder)
  => erl -pa /home/user/myapplication/myapp -1.0/ebin
- Create the target system:
  => target_system:create("myapp_rel-1").

Installing a Target System
=> target_system:install("myapp_rel-1", "/usr/local/myapplication/myapp").

Start Target System from OS:
=>/usr/local/myapplication/myapp/bin/start

It starts successfully and works as expected except for the fact that it
doesn't start on an actual named node, e.g myapp1@REDACTED, it
always starts on nonode@REDACTED

The intention for this app is to be started by the OS at boot time, perhaps
via /etc/init.d, and it needs to be on its own node.
