Disappearing DNS Community Fix

"I mentioned the problem that a number of people are having with the latest DNS MP in  a previous post. Apparently Microsoft are aware of the bug but they can not repro it. Without being able to reproduce it they are having a problem fixing it. However Daniele Grandini contacted me with a fix that he has created. In his environment his DNS servers went from 38 to 53 after applying his fix and they have not disappeared since.

He says

The discovery script has a bug when the WMI query fails, in this case it will return an empty discovery document, this in turn will delete the previous discovery. This explains the flip flop behaviour with disappearing and reappearing DNS Servers. It must be added that the discovery runs every 15 mins making this more visible."
