7.6. Deleting DNS records in the IdM CLI

Prerequisites

• You are logged in as IdM administrator.

Procedure

• To remove records from a zone, use the ipa dnsrecord-del command and add the --recordType-rec option together with the record value. For example, to remove an A type record:

  $ ipa dnsrecord-del example.com www --a-rec 192.0.2.1

  If you run ipa dnsrecord-del without any options, the command prompts for information about the record to delete. Note that passing the --del-all option with the command removes all associated records for the zone.
