-------------------------------
Summary: use database hostnames for ad joined computers
Key: VCL-1116
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-1116
Project: VCL
Issue Type: Bug
Components: database, vcld (backend), web gui (frontend)
Affects Versions: 2.5
Reporter: Junaid Ali
Currently the VM's created use reverse DNS lookup to create their computer
hostnames. Also the DNS suffix is set to the name retrieved using the reverse
DNS lookup. For environments where the DNS domain does not match the active
directory domains this can cause issues with accessing Windows Distributed File
Shares (DFS). The windows client needs to use the same DNS suffix as the active
directory domain.
This fix creates a new column within the addomain table, so you can choose when
you want to enable this setting (default is disabled). The web frontend has
capability to toggle this setting within the ADDomain settings.
There is a secondary issue with the reboot subroutine where the SSH service
becomes available and the management node starts working on it, but then the
cygwin reset happens that causes intermittent SSH connection issues making the
process unreliable. Setting the SSHD service startup mode to manual for all
cases where cygwin reset will occur will overcome this issue.
