Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:

sebuildla -e adds domain suffix in ladb when there are domains in /etc/resolv.conf file

Sebuildla –e option : Create hosts look-aside database excluding the DNS

 

Environment: 

OS : RHEL

PIM : 12.5 and higher

Workaround:

Domain suffix is not added in ladb with sebuildla –a command.

[[email protected] ~]# sebuildla -a

CA ControlMinder: Creating users look-aside database.

CA ControlMinder: Creating hosts look-aside database using DNS.

CA ControlMinder: Creating services look-aside database.

CA ControlMinder: Creating groups look-aside database.

[[email protected] ~]# sebuildla -H

List of hosts in LADB:

localhost                        ::1

test                             1.1.1.1

localhost                        127.0.0.1

 

 

When I use sebuildla –e command, domain suffix is added in ladb.

[[email protected] ~]# sebuildla -e

CA ControlMinder: Creating only local hosts look-aside database.

[[email protected] ~]# sebuildla -H

List of hosts in LADB:

localhost                        ::1

test.ca.com                      1.1.1.1

localhost.ca.com                 127.0.0.1

 

To avoid adding domain suffix, you can use sebuildla –a –l options.

-l option : load database only from list file

 

dbmgr -dump -r l HOST > <PIM install Dir>/ladb/hostlist

 

sebuildla -h -l
