Anyone got a pointer to a coherent discussion of these three options for name 
resolution? I know how DNS and /etc/hosts work, and know enough about the 
Resolver to use and configure it for hosts that aren't in DNS.

What I want to understand is (at least):

1)     Is the Resolver always involved? That is, is it the equivalent of named 
on *ix?

2)     How is the hierarchy determined? I *think* I've read that you can have 
z/OS use more than one of these; can you use all three? In which order?

I've spent some time looking thru doc but haven't found this, though I'm sure 
it's there.

Thanks.
