Create a new host table entry

Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

Use the vserver services name-service dns hosts create command to create new DNS host table entries. These entries map hostnames to IP addresses.

-vserver <vserver name> - Vserver: Use this parameter to specify the Vserver on which the host table entry will be created.
-address <IP Address> - IP Address: Use this parameter to specify the IP address of the new host table entry.
-hostname <text> - Canonical Hostname: Use this parameter to specify the full hostname for the new host table entry.
[-aliases <text>,…] - Aliases: Use this parameter to specify any aliases to include in the new host table entry. Separate multiple aliases with commas.

This example creates a new DNS host table entry for 10.0.0.17 on the vserver vs1, with the hostname test.example.com and the alias test.
