Subdomain NS and A Record Propagation Issue

[rukpat]

I have set NS and A records for gramps.digitalsky.com.au
Questions:
1. Is there a misconfiguration or some propagation issue?
2. Even at @dns1.zoneedit.com the Answer Section is missing - it does not show the IP Address, why?


When I do

$ dig @dns1.zoneedit.com gramps.digitalsky.com.au

; <<>> DiG 9.18.28-0ubuntu0.22.04.1-Ubuntu <<>> @dns1.zoneedit.com gramps.digitalsky.com.au

I get NOERROR and the partially correct entries.

It has been over 72 hours and:

it seems the nameservers you have delegated do not have any zone file:

dig @ns1.p201.dns.oraclecloud.net a gramps.digitalsky.com.au

zoneedits part in this is this:

dig @dns1.zoneedit.com ns gramps.digitalsky.com.au

Thank you so much @sandy

I fixed it at OCI for gramps.digitalsky.com.au ... and now it is showing correctly:
