Add new Domain with existing domain on same SVM

Sumara — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:49:54 GMT

Hi All,

I am trying to add new domain with existing domain using below command:
vserver service dns create -vserver svm1 -domains abc.com -name-server 13.2.8.4 , 13.1.5.113, 13.1.5.114 -state enabled

but got error stating command failed duplicate entry.

Please let me know if we can have 2 domains for same svm.

Thank you in advance for help.

You need to use the 'modify' command:
::>vserver services dns modify -vserver <vserver> -domain <domain_name> -name-servers <DNS_server_IP>,<DNS_server_IP>,<DNS_server_IP>
