Specifying DNS domain while requesting VM

Specifying DNS domain while requesting VM

You can override the domain name under DHCP option of a network by providing the custom dnsSuffix value or domain name as a custom property in vRA during the provisioning of VMs. This will allow you to have a different domain name for a set of IPAddress/IP Range in a network.

Example:
Infoblox.IPAM.Network0.dnsSuffix = “<custom dnsSuffix>”

You can provide the custom dnsSuffix value by using one of the following methods:

  • During creation/design of a Blueprint: 
    1. In vRA, navigate to Design –> Blueprints →  Edit Blueprint screen in vRA. For more information, see Designing a Blueprint.
    2. On the Properties tab, click Custom Properties.
    3. Click New and add the following custom dnsSuffix property: 
      Infoblox.IPAM.Network0.dnsSuffix = “<custom dnsSuffix>”.
    4. Click Save.
  • While requesting a published catalog item:

    1. In vRealize Automation, go to the Catalog tab.
    2. Click Request for the appropriate pre-configured service.

    3. In the Deployment panel, click Properties.

    4. Click New and add the following custom dnsSuffix property: 
      Infoblox.IPAM.Network0.dnsSuffix = “<custom dnsSuffix>”.
    5. Click Save.
