The shoc computer should be reachable by an '''alias''' containing the telescope name. Usually '''shoc74in''' is an alias to '''shocnawe''', and '''shoc40in''' is an alias to '''shocndisbelief'''. If, e.g. '''shocndisbelief''' is mounted on the '''74inch''' telescope, the alias '''shoc74in''' should be changed to point to '''shocndisbelief'''.
IT should '''ONLY''' change the '''CNAME record'''. The '''A records''' should '''NEVER''' change. Even if only one of the instruments is being moved to another dome, BOTH records must be switched or DNS resolution will be intermittent. Example of a switched DNS setup:
Both '''shocndisbelief''' and '''shocnawe''' machines move between the telescopes. The setup below is what needs to change when '''shocnawe''' is moved.
