Lanman agent optional attributes (continued)
Optional Attributes
DNSCriticalForOnline
Description
Defines whether the Lanman resource faults if the agent fails
to update the DNS. The value 1 indicates that the resource
faults in case of a failure to update the DNS. The value 0
indicates that it does not.
Default is 0.
In case of an IPv6 environment this attribute has no effect on
the Lanman agent behavior. Even if this attribute is set to 0,
the Lanman resource faults if the agent is unable to update
the DNS.
Type and Dimension: boolean-scalar
DNSOptions
An array that specifies the way in which the Lanman resource
updates the DNS servers.
This attribute can take one or all of the following values:
■
■
■
■
UpdateAll: Updates all the default DNS servers specified
in the TCP/IP properties for the cluster node, and the
additional DNS servers specified in the
AdditionalDNSServers attribute.
IgnoreDefault: Ignores the default DNS servers and updates
only the additional DNS servers.
PurgeDuplicate: Removes duplicate DNS entries from the
DNS servers. Symantec recommends you set this value for
service groups configured for wide area failover.
SkipPtrRecords: The Lanman resource excludes the PTR
records while updating the resource records on the
specified DNS servers.
Any combination of these values can be specified for the
attribute. This attribute takes effect only when the Lanman
resource comes online.
See Updating DNS servers for more information.
By default, the attribute contains no value. Values specified
for this attribute will be effective only if DNSUpdateRequired
is set to 1 and additional DNS servers are specified in the
AdditionalDNSServers attribute.
Note: In cases where the default DNS is a BIND DNS server,
set this attribute value to IgnoreDefault, and specify the BIND
DNS server details in the AdditionalDNSServers attribute.
Type and Dimension: string-vector
