@geomacy Indeed, it is annoying that we cannot control the
`networkaddress.cache.ttl` directly hence why I went for the old
`sun.net.inetaddr.ttl` property.
Good idea though, I'll add a comment
> DNS lookups cached for too long
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: BROOKLYN-579
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-579
> Project: Brooklyn
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Alex Heneveld
> Priority: Major
>
> I've had issues where DNS values are changed but Brooklyn doesn't see those.
> I think Java caches hostnames forever by default, ignoring DNS TTL.
> (Controlling Route 53 from Brooklyn is one obvious such example!)
> We should consider overriding this.
> Oracle Cloud describe how
> (https://docs.us-phoenix-1.oraclecloud.com/Content/API/SDKDocs/javasdk.htm):
>
> {quote}The JVM uses the
> [networkaddress.cache.ttl|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/net/properties.html]
> property to specify the caching policy for DNS name lookups. The value is an
> integer that represents the number of seconds to cache the successful lookup.
> The default value for many JVMs, {{-1}}, indicates that the lookup should be
> cached forever.
> Because resources in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure use DNS names that can
> change, we recommend that you change the the TTL value to 60 seconds. This
> ensures that the new IP address for the resource is returned on next DNS
> query. You can change this value globally or specifically for your
> application:
> {quote} *
> {quote}To set TTL globally for all applications using the JVM, add the
> following in the {{$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security}} file:
> {{networkaddress.cache.ttl=60}}{quote}
> *
> {quote}To set TTL only for your application, set the following in your
> application's initialization code:
> {{java.security.Security.setProperty("networkaddress.cache.ttl" ,
> "60");}}{quote}
