Parameters

oid

The object ID of the physical network port (PNP) whose DNS servers are to be set.

alternateDnsServerAddress

A pointer to the IP address of the alternate DNS server. This parameter is NULL if the alternate DNS server address is being cleared.

• Returned if setting the alternate DNS server address is not supported by the specified PNP and the alternateDnsServerAddress argument is not NULL.

IMA_ERROR_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE

Returned if the oid argument does not specify a valid object type.

IMA_ERROR_INCORRECT_OBJECT_TYPE

Returned if the oid argument does not specify an PNP.

IMA_ERROR_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND

Returned if the oid argument does not specify an PNP known to the system.

IMA_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER

• Returned if the primaryDnsServerAddress or alternateDnsServerAddress argument is not NULL, and specifies a memory area from which data cannot be read

• Returned if the primaryDnsServerAddress argument is NULL, and the alternateDnsServerAddress argument is not NULL. It is not valid to have an alternate DNS server without having a primary DNS server.
