Hi,
I've a Windows Server 2008 R2 file server cluster to which I recently added a new Client Access Point. It's working except that every 24h hours the IP on the DNS record it's changed to the IP of the owner node, and few minutes later, changed back to the
IP address assigned to the CAP. I understand why the process occurs every 24h (DNS client registration runs every 24h), but not why or what it's indeed happening.
To put some context, and hints on what I've done wrong: this new name comes from a consolidation DFS (hosted in another server, turned off, DNS records deleted), and before add it as a CAP I tried:
- Add it as a CNAME record pointing to the (didn't work).
- Set DisableStrickNameChecking (didn't work).
- Add a new Service Principal Name (didn't work).
I've then undo all of that, and added the new name as CAP. As I said, it's working except for that issue. I've search in the registry for keys with that name, and the only one that I can find is related to the cluster service (so it's expected).
Any guess, hint? Thanks!
