The script supplies a RABBITMQ_NODENAME, which is sufficient.

Btw, as an aside, I notice that the script employs a mixture of 
rabbitmqctl and management API access. The latter for creating vhosts, 
granting user permissions, setting up queue mirroring policies and 
federated exchanges. All but the last one can be done with rabbitmqctl.

Indeed.

One problem with the scripts is that the servers are started 
asynchronously, with -detached, so they may not have fully started by 
the time the subsequent rabbitmqctl invocations try to talk to them. A 
judicious insertion of 'rabbitmqctl wait <pid_file>' should solve that.
