Hi,

Technically speaking, if there is no nameserver in the resolvers section,
then HAProxy won't perform any DNS resolution at run time.

I think you're right and we should report a Warning in such case.

resolvers section: nameservers required?

[Topher Cullen]

The documentation is unclear to me which, if any, of the resolver options
are required for run time resolution. I defined a resolver section like
this:

resolver mydns
  hold valid 2s

I then configured a backend to use it. haproxy started without error or
warning, but I don't believe its actually doing resolution. Can anyone shed
so light on this new feature?
