Remove DNS Record Workflow

This workflow removes A/AAAA, PTR and CNAME records from the NIOS database if they exist. You can specify either a particular host name or extensible attributes to search for the DNS records to be removed.

1. Log in to the vCenter Orchestrator client.
2. Choose Run mode.
3. On the Workflows tab, select the administrator entry –> Library –> IPAM.
4. Right-click the Remove DNS record workflow and choose Start workflow.
5. Complete the Connection step to establish the connection to the NIOS IPAM appliance: click the Connection to the IPAM server field. Expand Infoblox IPAM and select the IP address of the Infoblox NIOS Grid member. Click Select.
6. Click Next.
7. In the Remove criteria step, do one of the following:
   • Specify the FQDN host name assigned to the DNS records and, optionally, the DNS view where they reside.
   • Select Yes to use extensible attributes to search for records and specify the EAs options. For more information about extensible attributes, see Extensible Attributes in IPAM Workflows.
8. Click Submit.
