[OpenIndiana-discuss] Configuring DNS client failover logic

Is there a way to configure the logic of nameserves failover for the
OpenIndiana DNS client?

In particular I want to use multiple nameserver entries in /etc/resolv.conf
as follows - if one server reports that name is unknown, client should
attempt to use the next server in the list and etc. (By default it fails
right away if the first server fails to resolve the address).

Thanks,

Hillel.
