So what is the value for numreqs you are using? I found one comment in 
ddns.pm, it's - # limit to 300 updates in a payload, something broke at 
644 on a certain sample, choosing 300 for now.

I remember that our system test has verified the case that there are more 
than 2k hosts in /etc/hosts, makedns -n can work though it takes some time 
to complete, but not sure if they were using SLES..

Besides, what's in /var/lib/named(ls -l /var/lib/named)?

Thx.
Jing.

Re: [xcat-user] dns error






Hi Jing, 

Below is the output for "XCATBYPASS=yes makedns -n". What I find (from my 
diagnosis) is that the domains are registered up until the multiple of 
numreqs (the variable I have been playing with in ddns.pm), and the last 
portion is when the  "error was NOTZONE" comes along.

I have snipped the domain name below as well

Hi Arif, 

‘-’should not be the cause, the valid characters include a through z, 
numbers and the '-', but not '_'. ddns.pm has the code check for the valid 
hostname characters, so if the hostname is invalid, you will be able to 
see error messages in the makedns outupt. 

Are you still seeing the error of "Error: Failure encountered updating 
.bg., error was NOTZONE" when run makedns -n? 

You can try to run "XCATBYPASS=yes makedns -n", then see if there is any 
change in the output? if possible, post me the output. Thx. 

Jing.

Re: [xcat-user] dns error








Hi list, 

I seem to be having the same problem at one of the customer sites

I have been trying to play with the numreqs value in the ddns.pm, but 
nothing seems to solve the problem.

We have approx > 2000 hosts in /etc/hosts, (The hostnames have - in the 
name, could this be a cause?)

I have now recently upgraded from 2.7.3 to 2.7.6, with no avail.

Any info on what may be the cause, I would appreciate this.

regards,
Arif

[xcat-user] dns error










Hi ALL! 

I got error making dns. 
My configuration is: 
sles10.2 ppc 
xcat 2.7 

error appeares when trying to run makedns -n 

Updating DNS records, this may take several minutes in scaling cluster. 
Error: Failure encountered updating .bg., error was NOTZONE 
Completed updating DNS records. 
named has been enabled on boot. 
DNS setup is completed 

/etc/resolv.conf 

domain bg 
search bg 
nameserver 172.21.0.5 

in that case i have reverse zones configured correctly, but direct 
contains only one record - mgmt(172.21.0.5) 

if i change resolve.conf 
domain bg 
search bg 
nameserver mgmt 

I have only mgmt zone in direct and reverse zones. 

Thank you for help in advance 
Igor
