Custom domain blocked: berkeley.edu subdomain managed by another team

Dear Netlify Support,

I am trying to add cmr.berkeley.edu to my site (cmr-develop.netlify.app), but I’m getting the error that it’s already managed by Netlify DNS on another team.

I was working with campus DNS administration yesterday (Friday afternoon) to request a DNS transfer. Because the request was urgent, they moved forward with the change before we were able to detect this problem and unfortunately I haven’t been able to get back in touch to coordinate with them during after-hours.

  • I will be working with Berkeley DNS to try to add the verified-for-netlify TXT record to prove ownership as soon as possible.
  • But because of the timing over the weekend, I was hoping there was an alternative way to prove ownership and/or bypass this restriction on the subdomain cmr.berkeley.edu

Could a support engineer please help clear the block?

Thanks very much.

Dear Netlify Support,

I’m writing to confirm that the UC Berkeley DNS office has supplied the following TXT record for verification.

I would appreciate any assistance in clearing the domain block this morning, thank you!
