Nope, nope, nope! When you change DNS entries, they will take effect at some point in the future when the cache expires and when your app decides to reconnect. (Possibly after a restart) At that point, why not be sure and change the config?
I mean, DNS change can work, but when you're doing that one-in-years change, why risk the extra failure modes.
