Symptom

Host resolution for ping works fine from the VRF. When copying a file from that same host via HTTP/HTTPS it's unable to resolve the IP. With "debug domain" we see the following: RP/0/RSP1/CPU0:ASR-9906-B#copy http://xxxr.cisco.com/static/router-64-red.png harddisk: vrf calo-mgmt Thu Aug 4 11:16:27.372 UTC RP/0/RSP1/CPU0:Aug 4 11:16:28.558 UTC: domain_services[1297]: defaultnamelookup_vrf_search_node: Namelookup not present for VRF default.

Conditions

When copying files via VRF to the Router that require Name Resolution, it fails.

Workaround

Use the IP address of the Server instead of the Domain Name.
