Unable to change hostname

[d4mourtzis96]

Hi all,
i am trying to change the server hostname since it changed with a whm update for no reason. I set it in whm/networking setup/ gostname and the log says it is changed succesfully but when i go to hostname again it is the previous cprapid hostname. Also the /etc/hostname file has the correct hostname.
What can i do?

How about WHM => Change Hostname?

How about WHM => Change Hostname?

Have tried the command line?

CentOS 7

Set the hostname
# hostnamectl set-hostname your-new-hostname

To verify 
# hostnamectl status

CentOS 6

Set the hostname
# hostname  your-new-hostname
# service network restart

To verify
# hostname
