Changed hostname in WHM but cPanel notifications display the old hostname

I've had this happen on two different servers. I used the WHM "Change hostname", but the email notifications from cPanel still have the old hostname. What else needs to happen to fully complete the change? upcp? Reboot?

  Nevermind, it's in the docs: When you change your hostname, the system preserves the old hostname so that currently-running services can function in a consistent environment until you reboot the server.

  Hello, I'm happy to see you were able to find the answer on our documentation. To anyone else viewing this thread, the referenced document is available at: Change Hostname - Documentation - cPanel Documentation Thanks!
