How to change the hostname DNS IP Addresses in vRealize opration Manager 6 Appliance ( vrops) ?

Task: Recently We have changed the DNS server and after that I should have to update the DNS in vRealize operation manager Appliance .

failed solution: Since the appliance is Suse linux, I have update the DNS host name in resolv.conf file and rebooted. but unfortunately when it's up, the DNS reverted back to the old DNS.


permanent solution: after gone thru google, I found out that there is pre bash scripts available inside the server and I used those scripts to update my DNS.

bash script location: /opt/vmware/share/vami

below shows the bash scripts that are available in appliance.


FYI: the scripts available as well for other changes such as domain, ip address, gateway, hostname

    To get to the result you need to run the following script in the mentioned above vami directory

    ./vami_set_hostname FQDN
