Add a new nameserver using the GUI

You may need to use another nameserver on the headnode - in bostons case this is to use the DNS for PXE

Normally you would simply change the resolv.conf file. If you look at the file you will see that its auto generated by bright. The settings should be defined and changed through bright.

Using the GUI

Click on the cluster name in the left hand menu. This will show a number of tabs that contain cluster wide information.

On the settings tab you will find a section for name servers and another for search domains. Add the correct information and click save.

The same will then restart the named process at which point the inforation will be added to the resolv.conf file.
