MAAS does not update BIND configuration when domain changes

[Mark Shuttleworth]

We offer the user the ability to change the domain associated with the MAAS cluster, but MAAS does not appear to rewrite or update the DNS files in /etc/bind/maas/ when one does so.

It should be possible to change the domain for the MAAS cluster and have DNS work immediately.

I can't recreate this (I tried using the version in Trusty,1.5+bzr2236-0ubuntu1, and the latest package, 1.5+bzr2241+2242+275~ppa0~ubuntu14.04.1).

I configured a cluster controller to manage DNS (http://people.canonical.com/~rvb/dns-config-1.png) and saw the zone file for the domain 'maas' (the default) being written. Then I changed the domain name using the UI (http://people.canonical.com/~rvb/dns-config-2.png): the new zone file got written and the main file (/etc/bind/maas/named.conf.maas) got updated to reference that new zone file. Additionally, /var/log/syslog shows that the DNS server did reload the new config.

Can you please provide additional details?
