How to Modify DNS Information

To modify DNS information, use the ilomconfig modify dns command. If an XML file name is specified, the command modifies the XML file accordingly rather than modifying Oracle ILOM itself.

• Issue the following command:

  ilomconfig modify dns [--nameservers=nameserverlist] [--autodns=enabled|disabled] [--retries=retries] [--searchpath=searchpathlist] [--timeout=timeout] [--xmlfile=filename.xml]

  
  

  Option Description Example --nameservers List of DNS nameserver IP addresses for Oracle ILOM separated by commas. 10.168.1.10 --auto-dns Oracle ILOM Auto-DNS state. enabled or disabled --searchpath List of search suffixes in preferred order and separated by commas. --retries Number of retry attempts for DNS. Integer between 0 and 5. --timeout Number of seconds to wait for a DNS response. This can be used with up to six search suffixes, each separated by a comma. 2 --xmlfile Modify specified XML file rather than local Oracle ILOM service processor. Must be followed by = and the pathname to the file. file.xml
