DNS - added a NIC to a VM set no DNS on the new NIC - from that server if I ping its own name it replies with the new IP on the new NIC
I just noticed this - and now some scripts dont work as they try and egress the new NIC - which in fact is for iscsi SAN - there is no gateway and no DNS set on the new adaptor - WHY has this happened ? how in the server itself has it registered some sort on name record for the server tieing it to the new adaptor storage van. - i put hosts record in and flushns and now its back to the correct IP - I just want to understand whats going on here? thanks OS 2008 r2

However it still does not tell me "where" the name is mapped. - Ok it uses the first adapter in the bindings - but where is the entry for the mapping if not in the hosts file - An adaptor doesnt have a name assosciated with it? if not hosts and not DNS - is it in another file or in registry - how does it work? - thanks
