How to add additional search domains and nameservers in RHOCP 4

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • How to add additional search domain for the cluster DNS in order to resolve domains that belong to the cluster base domain in OCP IPI installation.
  • The Domain Search List provided by DHCP does not contain all the required domains. How can we add additional?
  • Is it possible to modify the domain search in /etc/resolv.conf?
  • After an application is migrated to OpenShift they are failing to connect to outside resources due to the application not being configured to use fully qualified domain names.
  • Is it possible to modify the nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf?
  • Updating nameservers by creating machine configs causing MCP to go into a degraded state causing the below errors:
