Reconfigure DNS and Domain Search on the VMware Aria Automation Nodes for Site Protection and Disaster Recovery for VMware Cloud Foundation

To provide name translation and resolution between the protected and recovery VMware Cloud Foundation instances for VMware Aria Automation, configure the domain search parameters on the VMware Aria Automation appliances. To use name translation and resolution from each instance, you configure the domain and the domain search parameters for all three VMware Aria Automation nodes.

Procedure

1. Log in to the primary VMware Aria Automation node by using a Secure Shell (SSH) client at <aria_automation_primary_node_fqdn>:22 as root.

2. Edit the /etc/systemd/resolved.conf file.

   vi /etc/systemd/resolved.conf

3. Modify the DNS and Domains entries according to your VMware Cloud Foundation Planning and Preparation Workbook, and save the file.

   Note:

   You add an entry for the additional VMware Cloud Foundation instance only. You use space separated domains.

4. Restart the DNS resolver service.

   systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service

5. Repeat this procedure for the remaining VMware Aria Automation nodes.
