NVIDIA confirmed the Zesty fix works for them. Would it be possible to
backport to 16.04.

Bug description:
  The DGX server install process uses oem-config to setup certain
  settings.  We are seeing that oem-config-firstboot is replacing the
  /etc/resolv.conf symlink to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf with a hard
  file at /etc/resolv.conf.

  This was confirmed by booting in single user mode after a fresh
  install, and seeing the symlink is still there.  Then go thru oem-
  config-firstboot, and find that the symlink is no longer there when
  that is done.

  We have to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf" to restore that
  symlink.
