So I have a problem. We are changing internal DNS servers (retiring
old AD DCs), so I wrote a script in Powershell that reads the current
DNS using a WMI call, then sets the DNS servers using the returned
method. This works fine ... except I inadvertently ran it against 1
node of a MS 2008 R2 cluster.

Now, in addition to the teamed NIC having the proper DNS settings, the
"Microsoft Failover Cluster Virtual Adapter" also has these same DNS
settings. And I don't think it is supposed to ...

On the other node, the virtual adapter looks like it is listing 3 IPv6
addresses:

fec0:0:0:ffff::1%1
fec0:0:0:ffff::2%1
fec0:0:0:ffff::3%1

the problem, of course, is that there is no way to edit that virtual
adapter (except perhaps in the way I did, using a script). If I
searched correctly, those IPv6 addresses don't really point to
anywhere (we don't use IPv6, and none of my DNS servers have it
enabled, anyway)

So: what have I done? Will this break anything? I can't see how, as
neither virtual adapter has a gateway defined at all.

if I have to fix it ... how? anyone?
