   Table 1 Basic zone parameters

   Parameter	Description
   Subdomain Name	Indicates the subdomain name of the zone. This function must be used together with the DNS function in the subnet.
   DNS Policy	Indicates the DNS policy of the zone. Possible options are as follows: Round-robin If clients access services using domain names, nodes are selected to process service requests of clients based on the sequence recorded in the cache. Number of node connections If clients access services using domains names, nodes with the fewest connections are selected to process service requests of clients. CPU usage If clients access services using domains names, nodes with the lowest CPU usage are selected to process service requests of clients. Port throughput If clients access services using domains names, nodes with the lowest throughput are selected to process service requests of clients.
   DNS	Indicates whether to enable the DNS service to resolve the subdomain name of the Global zone. After enabling DNS for the subnet, setting a subdomain name for the Global zone, and enabling DNS for the Global zone, the HDFS service of the Global zone can be accessed through the subdomain name.

   

   You are not advised to enable IP Address Failover for the Global zone. You can configure this function on the CLI as required.
