Description
When enabling dynamic dns without supplying a hostname on server edit form, “DDNS request error 428: No changes to be made” will be displayed below the hostname field.
This will only happen on outbound server connections, if the server already has an address and mac.

Steps to reproduce
- Add outbound server to ESM
- Edit server enabling dynamic DNS without providing a hostname (this will attempt to create an A name on exacqio)
<br>
Expected result
- If the server has a mac and IP addresses, hostname should be requested from exacqio (defaulting to e + Mac), and server edit form apply should succeed.
- I server doesn’t have a mac and IP addresses, server dynamic DNS should show to be enabled, but hostname will be requested when server connects.
<br>
Actual result
- If server has mac and ip address DDNS request error 428: No changes to be made is displayed and server edit form submit fails
- NOTE: if hostname is provided, this error will not be displayed. but the requested hostname will not work, at least until the server connection is reset.
- If server does not have mac and IP address, there is no attempt to request for a hostname from exacqio, hence no error
<br>
Work around
There is no feasible workaround for exacq cloud. Otherwise enable dynamic DNS when adding a server
