Why each option

When a new primary DNS server is configured via the Cisco UCM CLI, a full reboot of the Cisco UCM node is required for the changes to take effect.

Arestart of CallManager service

Restarting the CallManager service only affects call processing functions and does not re-initialize the underlying network-level DNS configuration.

Brestart of DirSync service

Restarting the DirSync service is specific to directory synchronization processes and has no impact on applying new DNS server settings for the node itself.

Creboot the Cisco UCM nodeCorrect

Changing fundamental network configurations like the primary DNS server on a Cisco UCM node through the Command Line Interface (CLI) necessitates a full system reboot of that node. This ensures that the operating system and all dependent services correctly adopt and initialize the new DNS settings, which are crucial for network communication and service resolution.

Drestart of TFTP service

Restarting the TFTP service is for phone configuration file distribution and does not apply new DNS settings at the operating system level for the CUCM node.
