Troubleshooting
Problem
After installing PHPC/PCM 4.x the named.conf contains zone information set to authoritative for the external/public domain which is breaking name resolution.
Symptom
nslookup on deployed computenode for hosts outside of cluster results in failure
Resolving The Problem
Step 1:
Verify the domain information is populated in PCM/HPC web gui
For example:
or use the following command to add the domain name for public network:
for example:
# chdef -t network public domain=contso.com
1 object definitions have been created or modified.
Step 2:
Add appropriate nameserver ip entry by the command below:
for example:
#chdef -t network public nameservers=18.143.2.7
1 object definitions have been created or modified.
Step 3:
Restart the loader:
# plcclient.sh -d pcmnetworkprofileloader
Loaders startup successfully.
Step 4
Recreate named.conf by running the following command:
# makedns -n

Verify :

Should only contain forward and reverse zone entries for the cluster with forwarder IP addresses.
For example:
Do a lookup of host external to the cluster from the computenode.
