# Incorrect DNS IP Entry for Instance (Designate)

## Problem

A **recordset** – an **A** record, corresponding to a provisioned instance and its currently assigned port and fixed IP – does **not** match the fixed IP, and is incorrect.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="None" %}

```none
$ openstack recordset show c484b117-bac2-4e9a-8e13-516c100c4338 70ab24b6-e3e4-4f73-b37c-21ea6e44f355+-------------+--------------------------------------+| Field | Value |+-------------+--------------------------------------+| action | NONE || created_at | 2021-02-06T04:50:11.000000 || description | None || id | ea719a9b-23c7-489c-8026-d24daf1a56f7 || name | test.demo.example. || project_id | 42114bfbdd5449e4954e71bbaebdc8bb || records | 10.0.0.2 || status | ACTIVE || ttl | None || type | A || updated_at | None || version | 1 || zone_id | 800d513a-e757-485d-97ea-ef6e7cc78acc || zone_name | demo.example. |+-------------+--------------------------------------+

## Environment

* Platform9 Managed OpenStack - v5.1
* Neutron
* Designate

## Cause

The cause of this issue is still being investigated.

## Resolution

1. Update the recordset with the correct IP.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="None" %}

```none
$ openstack recordset set --record 10.0.0.4 800d513a-e757-485d-97ea-ef6e7cc78acc ea719a9b-23c7-489c-8026-d24daf1a56f7+-------------+--------------------------------------+| Field | Value |+-------------+--------------------------------------+| action | UPDATE || created_at | 2021-02-06T04:50:11.000000 || description | None || id | ea719a9b-23c7-489c-8026-d24daf1a56f7 || name | test.demo.example. || project_id | 42114bfbdd5449e4954e71bbaebdc8bb || records | 10.0.0.4 || status | PENDING || ttl | None || type | A || updated_at | 2021-05-19T18:50:37.000000 || version | 2 || zone_id | 800d513a-e757-485d-97ea-ef6e7cc78acc || zone_name | demo.example. |+-------------+--------------------------------------+$ openstack recordset show 800d513a-e757-485d-97ea-ef6e7cc78acc ea719a9b-23c7-489c-8026-d24daf1a56f7 -c records -c status+---------+--------------+| Field | Value |+---------+--------------+| records | 10.0.0.4 || status | ACTIVE |+---------+--------------+

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://platform9.com/kb/pmo/solution/incorrect-dns-ip-entry-for-instance-designate.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
