I think your problem may be that xCAT took control of the 192.168.100.0 subnet, when you really just meant to inform xCAT about the network's existence. As a result, DNS queries are not forwarded to the 192.168.100.1 DNS server that actually does know about this zone.
In our system, I have defined only the minimum number of attributes for the external network: Object name: hpcpublic mask=255.255.255.0 mgtifname=eno2 mtu=1500 net=192.168.10.0 usercomment=HPC Public Network Don't put the gateway, nameserver or domain attributes into the public network - those would tell xCAT that it should try to manage the network, rather than just have information about it. I also found that having the gateway entry in more than one network can cause routing headaches in some scenarios (I'm not sure if it will cause that problem here). _______________________________________________________________________ Kevin Keane | Systems Architect | University of San Diego ITS | kke...@sandiego.edu Maher Hall, 192 |5998 Alcalá Park | San Diego, CA 92110-2492 | 619.260.6859 *REMEMBER! **No one from IT at USD will ever ask to confirm or supply your password*.
