Configure DNS client

I new in solaris can anyone tell me how to configure dns client? thank you

1. Edit the /etc/resolv.conf file
vi /etc/resolv.conf
domain example.com
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx # IP address of name server
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx # IP address of sec name server
search test.example.com research.example.com
2. Configure DNS as the naming service .
cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf
3. [b]Bounce the naming service .
svcadm restart network/dns/client
(OR)
Reboot the machine
4. Testing the DNS client
nslookup

DNS Client not Configured

Hello,
I have reviewed a number of other posts regarding this BPA error but have not found a specific solution.
Receiving the BPA Error: The DNS Client is not configured to point to the internal IP Address of the Server
If the DNS is currently functional, is this required? As a general practice, if it is working, don't change it....
If required, can someone list the steps to change this?

Hi:
The reason the Server should be the DNS server is to maintain _internal_ DNS so each station can find the server and each other. The Internet will work if the setting on the station can find a DNS server that can find the upstream DNS servers.
The way this is meant to work is the stations and the server query the DNS server on the Essentials server. If it knows the name to IP translation, as it should for LAN queries it will provide the results. If it does not, as it most likely would
not in the case of a new internet search, is uses forwarders or root hints (look up those terms if you don't recognize them) to find the name to IP translation and send it back to the station.
If you use DNS servers outside the LAN the usual results are slow startup times and slow network browsing.

DNS caching problem when configuring Windows clients for SCAN

I have a Windows 2008 R2 server running apps that connect to a RAC cluster database using the SCAN address. The SCAN address however always returns the same IP when you ping it from that server. If I flush the DNS cache I get a different address, but again the same one all the time. I believe this is caused by the fact that DNS caching is enabled on Windows by default. This has caused problems when one of the RAC nodes goes south and the cached SCAN IP is not responding. The applications lose their connections, try to reconnect, but can't because they keep using the same dead SCAN IP.
I suggested we disable the DNS Client service on those machines so that the SCAN name correctly cycles through the addresses but the Windows admin says not to do this. Is there a documented practice somewhere that this is OK to do for Windows RAC clients? Or is there a way to disable caching just on the SCAN name but leave it enabled from every other host name?
TIA

What happened was the SCAN VIP did not fail over. The node VIP did not fail over. The database instance was running but I could not connect to it even locally as sysdba. I got the message "protocol adapter error". This normally only occurs on Windows for local connections when either (a) the Oracle service is not running, or (b) you didn't set the ORACLE_SID variable correctly. Neither was true.
I tried "crsctl stop crs" but it could not stop the listeners.
I rebooted the server. During the reboot, neither the VIP no SCAN VIPs failed over. It's almost as if CRS either didnt recognize tat the other node had been shutdown, or it didn't care.
I have never seen this happen before.
For the record this is Oracle RAC 11.2.0.1.

How to configure dhcp client identifier

Hi Everybody,
The DHCP client ID is an id that is unique for DHCP clients at least in the same subnet. Usually the client uses MAC-address as Client-Identifier in the DHCPDISCOVER message. The Client-Identifier may be different other than MAC-Address, For example a FQDN name, as per the RFC 2132 Ref, (code 61).+_
Usaually, we use the following to bind the ip address based on MAC-address
pntadm -r SUNWfiles -p /var/dhcp -A 10.42.32.86 -i '0:3:ba:a5:a9:93' -a 10.42.32.80
At server side, I am using the following for specifying the FQDN name.
pntadm -r SUNWfiles -p /var/dhcp -A 10.42.32.86 -i 'one.atr.com' -a 10.42.32.80
and at client side, I am inserting the following entry in the /etc/default/dhcpagent file
CLIENT_ID='one.atr.com'
But this is not working. What I am doing wrong.
+1. At the server side, then how to assign the ip addresses to the clients , if the Client-Identifier is FQDN name in the DHCPDISCOVER message other than MAC-Address.+
+2. How to configure the client-identifier as FQDN name at client side.+
Please help me,
Thanks Inadvance,
Mummaneni.

Sandman,
Here is an example of a router acting as a DHCP server. Please remember that you have to exclude IP addresses that you don't want to lease out.
ip dhcp pool example
import all
network 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
dns-server 1.2.3.4
default-router 192.168.1.1
ip dhcp excluded-address 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.149
ip dhcp excluded-address 192.168.1.200 192.168.1.254

DNS client in a non-global zone

Hello,
I want to configure only the non-global zone as a DNS client, with
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/defaultdomain
/etc/nsswitch.conf
Is this ok or is this a global wide issue?
-- Nick

Yes. The /etc file system is private to each zone (both in the sparse and whole root models) so each zone can have it's own DNS settings (as well as private things like a different time zone and such).

Domain Controllers that are DNS servers DNS Client settings

[Copying verbatim from a mail by Joe ]
So I have been pinged by a few folks recently on configuration of client DNS settings on Domain Controllers that are also functioning as DNS Servers. Lots of debate. I understand there has been long time debate within MSFT as well.
From http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds/archive/2010/07/17/friday-mail-sack-saturday-edition.aspx there
is the quote
"3.When referencing a DNS server on itself, a DNS client should always use a loopback address and not a real IP address."
From http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=9166 (Windows
Server 2008 R2 Core Network Guide)
"9. In Preferred DNS server, type the IP address of your DNS server. If you plan to use the local computer as the preferred DNS server, type the IP address of the
local computer.
10. In Alternate DNS Server, type the IP address of your alternate DNS server, if any. If you plan to use the local computer as an alternate DNS server, type the IP address of
the local computer."
From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd378900(v=ws.10).aspx (DNS:
DNS servers on <adapter name> should include their own IP addresses on their interface lists of DNS servers)
"The inclusion of its own IP address in the list of DNS servers improves performance and increases availability of DNS servers. However, if the DNS server is also a domain controller and it points only to
itself for name resolution, it can become an island and fail to replicate with other domain controllers. For this reason, use caution when configuring the loopback address on an adapter if the server is also a domain controller. The loopback address should
be configured only as a secondary or tertiary DNS server on a domain controller...
Add the loopback IP address to the list of DNS servers on all active interfaces. The loopback IP address should not be the first server in the list."
ESPECIALLY "For this reason, use caution when configuring the loopback address on an adapter if the server is also a domain controller. The loopback address should be configured only as a secondary or tertiary
DNS server on a domain controller." and "Add the loopback IP address to the list of DNS servers on all active interfaces. The loopback IP address should not be the first server in the list."
Why shouldn't loopback not be first, the justification is why you shouldn't only use loopback, not why it shouldn't be first.
From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff807362(v=ws.10).aspx (DNS:
DNS servers on <adapter name> should include the loopback address, but not as the first entry)
"If the loopback IP address is the first entry in the list of DNS servers, Active Directory might be unable to find its replication partners.
The inclusion of its own IP address in the list of DNS servers improves performance and increases availability of DNS servers. However, if the DNS server is also a domain controller and it points only to itself,
or points to itself first for name resolution, this can cause a delay during startup. For this reason, use caution when configuring the loopback address on an adapter if the server is also a domain controller. The loopback address should be configured only
as a secondary or tertiary DNS server on a domain controller."
This also seems like justification against only using loopback versus using it first.
Are there any actual real documented issues for using loopback first and a remote DNS server second and perhaps third? If the local DNS server service isn't working yet (or at all), I would expect the DNS Client process
to try to connect to it, fail, and then failover to the secondary just like I would expect it to failover if the remote DNS server was secondary and it was unavailable and it failed back to the loopback. Am I making a bad assumption?
And by documented I don't mean random responses to questions on the internet or other such items. I mean a KB article or technet article or properly researched and tested other web article from a reliable resource.
thanks,
joe

As I understand it, the scenario whereby a DC could become an 'island' if it points only to itself, or to itself first, was repaired in the Windows Server 2003 product cycle. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/275278 for information about this scenario.
However, there is still a known problem of slow boot times that can occur. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2001093 for information about this. The scenario that is discussed assumes there is a power failure and servers shut down due to overheating while on backup power. When
multiple servers come online simultaneously after power is restored, there can be a significant delay.
The recommended configuration is one that avoids a single point of failure, but also tries to optimize the speed of resource record registration, so that Active Directory can properly synchronize.

How to configure DNS on RED HAT 5,4

Hello Linux experts
I'm need to configure dns service for Oracle RAC 11gR2
For dns server, I'm using the hosts for RAC.
How to configure DNS on RED HAT 5.4 ?
Anyone have a manual for do this ?
Best Regardss

Regardless of whether your will find tools or perl scripts like h2n, or manage your configuration files directly, you will need to get yourself familiar with basic DNS concepts and terms. A DNS cluster is a number of nameservers that share DNS records. You may perhaps rather want to setup a DNS server system consisting of a master and slave DNS server for your authoritative zone (domain name) on each node, but also configure for DNS forwarding and perhaps caching to public DNS servers on the internet. You may want to configure primary and secondary DNS records on your client sides in /etc/resolve.conf, perhaps also using some round-robin or timeout options.
I'm afraid Google will be your best friend. You may find below links helpful in your approach:

Q on Solaris 11.2 DNS Client

Hi All,
Pls note that the mailq command is found hangup whenever the DNS Client is being enabled in our Solaris 11.2 server. So, do anyone have any clue on this behavior?
Thanks & Regards

Hi Carlos,
Solaris 10 and Solaris 11 are "apples and oranges", to use the popular comparitive expression. In this case, it's more like "grapes and watermelons", or "strawberries and raisins" . .you get the idea : )
This doc talks about it:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris11/documentation/solaris11-whatsnew-201111-392603.pdf
"System Configuration in the SMF repository
Some basic system configuration has been migrated into the SMF system configuration
repository with Oracle Solaris 11, as part of a wider move to reduce the number of
configuration files that are located in /etc and to improve the management of configuration
during system upgrade. . . . . ."
and specifically on S11 name services:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/E24456/gliyc.html#gllcu
It's a whole new world.

DNS client service issue

I’ve got a DNS client service issue:
I have a webserver in my local Domain, which is accessible locally only.
One client machine with Windows Server 2012 sometimes cannot access the websites situated on this local webserver. Its event viewer does not contain any issues. The machine can still access the internet. The thing I need to do then, is to restart the DNS client
service on this Windows Server client. After that these local websites are reachable again. The DNS Server is installed on the DC.
What approach could I follow to solve this issue?
Patrick

Are you using the fqdn (host.domain.tld), a single label name or a custom dns name?
If you use the single label name, dns name resolution depends on the suffixes, make sure these are configured.
If the issue occurs, you could use nslookup to check if the communication with all configured dns servers is working and the required records are there.
Use ping to check if the correct ip with FQDN is returned. No FQDN implies netbios was used for name resolution - no good -> check the dns configuration
If you use a custom dns name, check what IP it resolves (ping/nslookup); is it a server local IP? If not, check if the issue resolves by putting the dns alias in the hostsfile with a local ip (or 127.0.0.1 if the bindings for your site allow)
The issue might also be solely related to the dns cache maintained by the service. You could check if ipconfig /flushdns resolves the issue to confirm. Their is not much configuration or debugging info available on this, but issues I've seen all boil down
to dns servers not being corretcly configured on the client's ip settings.
You could enable the DNS Client Events operational log (eventviewer->applications and services logs\Microsoft\Windows to maybe get more info on the issue.

Slow JDBC calls with wrong configured DNS

We recently found out that a wrong configured DNS Server can cause oracle JDBC Clients to react extremly slow. (1 second per simple sql statment)
We have found also that if the DNS server is disabled on server side (8.1.7.1 Oracle, Redhat 6.2 server) the system responds with normal speed.
It seems for us that Reverse lookups are done for any SQL Statement sent from the client and not only for the first connection.
Does anybody know how to disable this Reverse DNS-Lookups on Server side because this may also cause a slowdown if the DNS-Server is correctly configured or all clients are defined in /etc/hosts.
Thank you in advance!

Issue 2: I'm trying to deploy a couple of Packages/Applications using SCCM 2012 R2 running on Win2K8 R2 with no luck, knowing that I could install the packages
on a test VM “in the DataCenter site”, but when trying to deploy the packages to production PC “in the Office Site”,
the status is packages deployment compliance stuck at 0%
Infrastructure:
3 SCCM servers: CAS, PRI & SEC. Both CAS and PRI are in the DataCenter site, and SEC is in the Office site. The office site has several IP subnets.
Boundaries are configured through Forest Discovery “IP Ranges and AD Sites” since that the AD site should contain all the IP subnets that the AD site contains, Boundaries groups are also configured and a site reference
server is configured for each group respectively.
A OU based Collection has been configured that contains 13 PC "the collection contains the PCs that the packages should be installed.
Packages/Applications are configured correctly since that I could successfully deploy the packages to the test VM which is on the same subnet as the CAS and the PRI servers "the DataCenter subnet". The issue
is that I can't deploy the packages to production PCs in the Office subnet!
Firewall rules are configured and applied via GP, and I even turned Windows Firewall off, and still nothing! I tried to manually initiate Computer Policy download via the SCCM GUI and via a script, still no luck!
I tried configuring IP Subnet Boundaries, still no luck!!

It looks like clients in the Office Site can’t connect to the DP/MP of the Secondary Site server which is also a DP.
While on the PC that the application was installed on I see the folowing in the LocationService.log:

Is there something wrong with the Distribution point on the Secondary Site server?
Please help…
Thanks..

Update:
I fixed the issue with the default XXX00002 package - "Configuration Manager Client Package", it will not deploy to the Secondary Site DP. I did that through "Update Distribution Points" option, and after a while the status was 100%.
However; the second issue is still unsolved...
Please help..

Unable to copy hidden package "Configuration Manager Client Package" to local DP

Content status lists it as successfully distributed to all DPs (including the local site server)
However, component status for SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER continually logs these events:
Distribution Manager failed to process package "Configuration Manager Client Package" (package ID = CDW00001).
Possible cause: Distribution manager does not have access to either the package source directory or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that distribution manager can access the package source directory/distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files with long file names and the total length of the path exceeds the maximum length supported by the operating system.
Solution: Reduce the number of folders defined for the package, shorten the filename, or consider bundling the files using a compression utility.
Possible cause: There is not enough disk space available on the site server computer or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that there is enough free disk space available on the site server computer and on the distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files that might be in use by an active process.
Solution: Close any processes that maybe using files in the source directory. If this failure persists, create an alternate copy of the source directory and update the package source to point to it.
NOTE: It appears to not be any of these causes.

Both errors are certificate related. Is there anything special about your configuration such as special ACLs on the certificate store or FIPS compliance mode (see
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811833) being enabled?
Nothing special with certificates; I've used the basic stuff for intranet management of clients.
The only related thing I can think of that may have affected this, is that I discovered earlier today that my MP installation got hosed (error 500) due to a broken client install on the site server itself. I uninstalled the client manually and the server
(as indicated by the component status views) appears to have repaired the MP install. Perhaps it didn't repair it completely? Would a site reset do me any good?

If i have Dns Client service running, is it necessary to enable dns prefetch in the about:config section?

I've been wondering this for a while and can't seem to find the answer.
Whenever i set network.dns.disablePrefetch to true, the browser seems to load a bit more smoothly and even with the pref. disabled, the dns client service seems to still cache dns whenever i check on cmd using the ipconfig /displaydns command.
Does this mean that the browser still fetches dns even with the pref disabled?

I'm not really sure if it speeds up the loading process or not since it's a bit hard to tell but like i said, the loading is smoother.
Is Dns Client service different from Dns prefetch?

How do you set up your Configuration Manager client when Imaging?

OK everyone we got an issue that we need to take care of sorry if this seems like a dumb question but we cant seem to make this work. How do you set your configuration manager client when you deploy your image(s)? I created package and pointed
it right to the config manager install directory just like the recommended one for USMT but it does not seem to work. I also tried to leave it blank but it appears to be mandatory.. So my question how do YOU get it to work for your areas?
Thanks

that might be the problem I dont see a "Microsoft Configuration Manager Client 5.0 All" anywhere. We threw something together that points to:
\\Server.Domain.com\SCCM_Install\SMSSETUP\CLIENT
What is happening is this.
Have a task to deploy Windows natively to the workstation
Drop applications to the workstation
do updates
capture back to server
All it does is
Drop the OS down
copy the Agent files
join to the domain
reboot
sit
sit
and sit

Set Up CTS+: Webdynpro CTS_BROWSER - configure Organizer client in TMS

Hi all,
I'm trying to set up the CTS+ in a Portal Enviroment.
This is my landscape:
SID System Role
C1X ABAP + Java Stacks (CTS+ System and Trasport Domain Controller) with SPS15 (ABAP and JAVA)
JD1 Java Stack (EP Java Development System) Stack SPS14
JD2 Java Stack (EP Java Production System) Stack SPS14
I'm following step by step all points of Set Up and Use CTS+ in a Portal Enviroment Guide (May 2008).
In STMS (C1X) I add JD1 and JD2 System as Non-ABAP-System.
JD1 is the Java Source system and when I create it I set the flag "Activate Trasport Organizer" for C1X system
JD2 is the Java Target system and when I create it I set the flag "Activate Deployment Service" for method SDM
Then I create the new trasport layer ZJAD and the new trasport route from JD1 to JD2.
When I configure the trasport organizer Web UI and try to test the Web service CTS_BROWSER from SICF I received this message:
System C1X is not valid; configure Organizer client in TMS
Any IDEA??
Could you please help me?
Thanks
Moreno

Hi, I have the same issue here.
I think that is "normal" because SICF tries to run this in the name of you C1X system. This however must be running in e.g. the name of the development system.
e.g
http://hostname:8047/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/cts_browser?SYSID=<PORTALDEVELPOMENT_SID>&PURPOSE=EP&sap-client=000&sap-language=EN
Thanks!
