DNS not working

I installed our first SHD(v2.0.4) appliance without any issues during the installation, but after logging into the GUI and try to check a vcenter, I noticed that it couldn't do DNS resolution. I then tested though the console, and it can reach the devices IP addresses but no FQDNs, this also applies to external DNS resolution.

How do I reset the appliance configured DNS servers, I don't seem to be able to do it through the GUI.

Is static IP configuration used for SHD VM? If yes please check the network configuration for correct DNS settings? Configuration is stored in the file: /etc/systemd/network/99-static-en.network

It must have an entry for DNS server under [Network] section.


Sample Configuration:

[Match]
Name=eth0

[Network]
Address=192.168.1.10/28
Gateway=192.168.1.1
DNS=192.168.1.2

Once corrected please restart the VM.

Thanks
