DNS_ERROR_ZONESCOPE_ALREADY_EXISTS
DNS_ERROR_ZONESCOPE_ALREADY_EXISTS means that a zone scope with the requested name already exists in the target DNS zone. A zone scope is an alternate record set inside one zone, commonly used by DNS Policies for split-brain DNS or location-aware answers.
What to verify
- List the existing scopes before creating another one; scope names are unique within a zone.
- Confirm that the command targets the intended DNS server and zone. Policy configuration can differ between servers.
- Reuse the existing scope only after checking that its records and policy references match the intended design.
