@ IN SOA srvapp.gms.com. root.srvapp.gms.com. (
    42 ; serial (d. adams)
    3H ; refresh
    15M ; retry
    1W ; expiry
    1D ) ; minimum
    IN NS localhost
localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
ol6-112-rac1 IN A 192.168.10.41
ol6-112-rac2 IN A 192.168.10.42
ol6-112-rac1-priv IN A 192.168.8.41
ol6-112-rac2-priv IN A 192.168.8.42
ol6-112-rac1-vip IN A 192.168.10.43
ol6-112-rac2-vip IN A 192.168.10.44
ol6-112-rac-scan IN A 192.168.10.45
ol6-112-rac-scan IN A 192.168.10.46
ol6-112-rac-scan IN A 192.168.10.47

b) Create or edit rev.gms.com:
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA srvapp.gms.com. root.srvapp.gms.com. (
         42 ; Serial

         14400 ; Retry
         3600000 ; Expire
         86400 ) ; Minimum
     IN NS localhost.
1 IN PTR localhost.
41 IN PTR ol6-112-rac1.gms.com.
42 IN PTR ol6-112-rac2.gms.com.
43 IN PTR ol6-112-rac1-vip.gms.com.
44 IN PTR ol6-112-rac2-vip.gms.com.
45 IN PTR ol6-112-rac-scan.gms.com.
46 IN PTR ol6-112-rac-scan.gms.com.

Step 7: Start DNS service
service named restart
chkconfig named on Step 8: Configuration in Client
Client side: in station1.prasanna.com
just touch these files with the existing details
#vi /etc/resolv.conf
search gms.com
nameserver 192.168.10.60
#vi /etc/hosts
192.168.10.60 svrapp.gms.com
192.168.10.41 ol6-112-rac1.gms.com
Step 9: Test
