NOTE: When the DRAC 4 registers with the DNS server, it adds an extra line with a long string of
characters. This TXT entry in the database is an encrypted string that is used to uniquely identify the
owner of the DDNS entry and to serialize update operations. The TXT entry is associated with the
RAC
DDNS name. Manually removing or modifying either the A record or TXT record associated with
cfgDNSRacName, through the DNS server administrative interface, causes unexpected results
(for
example, the server cannot resolve the name, the server cannot update the name, and the server
returns the incorrect information for the name).
NOTE: The DRAC 4 DDNS implementation requires that DNS servers be configured to allow
nonsecure
updates.
NOTE: DDNS events can be found in the DRAC 4 trace log. To view DDNS events, use the gettracelog
command on the Web-based interface Diagnostics page or use the racadm gettracelog command.
