Hello,
We are developping a BI solution. We have 4 different environments/domains : development, test and acceptance and production. The servernames differ in each environment. For example the server in development is called SRVDEV10 while the server in test is called SRVTEST21. The full names will be like SRVDEV10.development.local and SRVTEST21.test.local
Now I would like that the network administrators to create a DNS alias called BI_Server.
If I am in the development environment BI_Server should point to SRVDEV10 and if I am in the test environment BI_Server should point to SRVTEST21.
Is something possible ? Should they make aliases like BI_Server.development.local : SRVDEV10.development.local and BI_Server.test.local : SRVTEST21.test.local. Those domains are seperated and it should normally not possible to go directly from development to test. It is also internal used and not accessable from the outside (internet)
Of course I can modify the hosts file but I don't want that.
What do you think ?
