More DNS fun, snapshots

Most of today was playing with veritas snapshots and playing with DNS. This morning I started work on a script to clean up and rebuild snapshots after a HDS shadow copy. When the shadow copy is done, snapshot from data from one set of disks is copied on to another, and the original set of snapshot data is lost. Because of this, a clean and rebuild process is needed.

I got about half done with the above, when I was pulled in to a DNS meeting. it turns out that the conversion of the NT domain to an active directory domain failed over the weekend, and DNS is the problem. We had some evil entries in DNS that caused a dynamic update to fail, and we have a stub zone that is not behaving. More work on this problem tomorrow.
