Hi I tried the things you mentioned but DNS is showing the correct address using dig and getent command. I think the Prometheus is caching the address because on another target, we had a DNS record "kafka-a.x.y.z" which was pointing to an IP address, now we deleted the DNS query and the dig command can't resolve the name "kafka-a.x.y.z" but the Prometheus is still reading metrics from it.
