I recently updated an internet DNS record for a place with an Astaro. For a VPN that I have to that Astaro from my home Astaro, I use the DNS hostname as the endpoint of the VPN. I flushed the DNS cache and flushed local DNS, and I can ping the new DNS record at the correct address, no problem.
However, the DNS Host definition for the same DNS hostname has not updated. I don't know how to update it, and from the research I've done through these forums, it looks like those only update via TTL. Even if the TTL is only an hour (the minimum for many registrars), that's a whole hour I have to wait for my VPN to come back up. Why doesn't flushing the cache immediately reset the TTL on all the DNS Host definitions to zero?
I read in a separate thread that this should be the correct functionality, and that the bug had been "fixed" according to the thread title ([8.285][BUG][OPEN] DNS Host definitions won't update if DNS cache is flushed), but I'm on version 8.301 and it doesn't work that way.
