Ipmon updates DNS with the wrong IP address on hosts with multiple Network interface cards -
Descripción
During a reboot the Ipmon process selects the IP address from another Network interface card.
It then updates DNS with the incorrect IP address.
This occurs on servers that are configured with more than one Network Interface card.
The output of the following command will show which IP address is selected by Ipmon:# /opt/quest/sbin/ipmond -v
Note that this command will also try to update dns, so use it carefully. -

WORKAROUND:
Disable the Ipmon process.
For example on Linux you can disabled Ipmon with the following command:
# chkconfig ipmond off
STATUS:A new option has now been added to the ipmond process in version 4.2.1.25203:
-i Interface label to use to determine dns ipaddress
Edit the ipmond start-up script:
/etc/init.d/ipmond
You need to change the following entry:
--------------------------
From:
pp_exec_cmd () { /opt/quest/sbin/ipmond & echo $! > $pidfile; }
To:
pp_exec_cmd () { /opt/quest/sbin/ipmond -i INTERFACE & echo $! > $pidfile; }
--------------------------
Replacing INTERFACE with the required network interface.
E.g:
pp_exec_cmd () { /opt/quest/sbin/ipmond -i eno16780032 & echo $! > $pidfile; } -
