Should I add a DNS z/Linux system inside the z/VM as a first check that
would resolve the same name to a 12
Then if not found there somehow go out to the network DNS. Should I try
to use the old HOSTFILEs type datasets?
How have others addresses this?
When I was supporting midrange Linux systems, we would always assign different
DNS names to different interfaces on the same system. Always. You don't want
to mess around with adding entries to /etc/hosts if you can avoid it.
I always have DNS (ISC BIND) set up. I never use /etc/hosts.
OTOH I only do toys.
I'm with Mark on different names for different interfaces. I don't know
a reason to have my.example.com on two networks. Two hosts on the same
network, maybe, but not on different networks.
