system vm network question

[Frank Lind <fl...@haystack.mit.edu>]

Hi,

Getting Cloudstack 4.2.1 going and we have an issue with configuration 
of our storage system VM. Logged into the ssvm via ssh correctly and ran 
the test script. This fails where the connection to the storage is not 
made properly due to a name resolution issue. The nameserver in 
/etc/resolv.conf gets set to the proper DNS server IP value (e.g. 
172.16.0.1). However the default domain name is not set properly (e.g. 
search mydomain.edu). When queried for the host name of the management 
server only the server name is used without any domain. The DNS only 
responds properly if given a fully qualified domain name or if it has a 
correct default search domain.

Can't seem to figure out how to either modify the system vm to retain an 
edit to /etc/resolv.conf or to get our DNS to handle a default. Another 
possibility would be to get the cloud management database to use the IP 
address of the management server on the system vms instead of the host 
name.

Any ideas on how to make this work properly?

Thanks,

Frank Lind
