Update DNS configuration on an Avamar Proxy
A common cause of VM backup failures is DNS servers changed, but was not updated on the proxy. Do update the DNS config without having to redeploy the proxy:
- Log in to the proxy as admin
- Switch to root user
su -
- Check the current configuration
cat /etc/resolv.conf
- Use the following syntax. x.x.x.x is the first DNS and y.y.y.y is the second DNS (optional)
/opt/vmware/share/vami/vami_set_dns -s yourdomain.com x.x.x.x y.y.y.y
- Reboot the proxy and confirm the change persists
reboot
cat /etc/resolv.conf
See Rod K’s post here for information on changing the rest of IDPA components’ DNS configuration: https://www.dell.com/community/Integrated-Data-Protection/DNS-configuring-and-issues/m-p/8104087#M105
