    Is it possible to configure a 3 or more DNS servers for the VCSA?

    Technically two DNS servers are good enough for any machine (primary and secondary) in any production environment. I am not sure what is the requirement here however if you wanted to keep additional, from the UI, I do not see any option but can use the /etc/resolv.conf file to update it manually (ensuring backup of the file to someother location). Though I have not tested the same but try it in a test lab first.

    Thanks,

    MS

    Hi Judgement​,

    If you go to https://your-appliance:5480 and login you can adjust the DNS settings under networking.
