NAMES.DOMAINS

Synopsis

NAMES.DOMAINS =
  (DOMAIN_LIST =
    (DOMAIN = (NAME = domain_name)(MIN_TTL = seconds))
    [(DOMAIN = (NAME = domain_name)(MIN_TTL = seconds))
    ...]
  )

Lists the domains managed by the Names server’s local region, and also defines the time to live for each of those domains.

Parameters

domain_name

A domain name. This can be NULL if the region manages net service names with no domain component.

seconds

The default time to live, expressed in seconds, for the region.

Be careful with the MIN_TTL parameter. This controls the amount of time that data from a Names server in a remote region is allowed to remain in the cache. If you make changes to a net service name defined in a remote region, and that net service name has already been cached, you won’t see the changes in your current region until after the time to live expires.
