We currently have two DNS servers ( Windows VMWare ). A primary and secondary. My AIX servers are DNS clients. We are having trouble with the AIX servers using a secondary DNS server if the primary DNS goes down. I have both DNS servers in the /etc/resolv.conf file in the proper order. Is there any other special configs needed on the AIX servers. |

It should pretty straight forward having the 2 DNS servers listed in the /etc/resolv.conf. nameserver "IP address" #DNS1 nameserver "IP address" #DNS2 The only other thing I can think of is to verify that the second one is pingable. Have you tried to reverse the order and see if it hits the secondary first? Good luck. |
