Change DNS when commissioning hosts

I would like to use a different DNS during the commissioning of new hosts. I do not wish to run the change DNS script on my existing install (not that it works anyway), rather I basically want to know what file on the SDDC manager I need to update so when it sets DNS on the new hosts it uses something other than what is returned when I run curl localhost/inventory/system-info | json_pp

I am not concerned about support, etc. I basically just need the internal hack as it is preventing me from testing something. Thanks.

From VCF perspective its not possible to set seperated DNS servers for hosts. You can change it in psql (as i remember correctly system table holds ntp and DNS servers) but manipulating data on db IS NOT SUPPORTED.
