Adding Additional DNS Entries for the Nodes

Updated

When you set up the nodes, you can add three DNS entries for each node. Use the following steps to add additional DNS entries for each node.

Procedure

  1. Login to the node and edit the following file:

    /etc/dnsmasq.conf

  2. Add the DNS entries / nameservers with the complete list as shown in the following example:

    server=172.18.229.167
server=172.18.129.161
server=172.18.59.7
server=8.8.8.8
server=4.4.4.4

  3. Change /etc/resolv.conf to use the local name server as follows:

     
    # chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf
vi /etc/resolv.conf (or edit the file using any text editor)

    Remove the entries and add the following:

    nameserver 127.0.0.1

    Save the file and then run the following commands:

    # chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
# systemctl restart dnsmasq

  4. Check /var/log/messages to verify that it has a list of all the nameservers as shown in the following example:
