If you just want to tell NM to clear off and leave your resolv.conf

I might possibly be able to set up a workaround based on that, but it's
not what I really want. Ideally I want NetworkManager to update

new information. Which is what it seemed to do in the past, but then
something changed...
I'm not running CentOS 7 with NetworkManager so I could be wrong but,
isn't it possible to run DHCP internally in NM or use dhclient? If so, did
you really check that nothing has happened there like renewing of the
lease?
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by running DHCP internally in NM, but
dhclient is being used. It's started automatically with a config
generated by NetworManager, and also a NM/connection specific lease file.
The resolv.conf update time does not match renew, rebind or expire time
stored in the lease file, and the file itself is generally not updated
when resolv.conf gets rewritten.
And did you also check on the ethernet link level that it never
went down for a short period of time? Such things can happen in certain
configurations.
It's hard to be sure, but I didn't find anything in the system log to
indicate disconnect from the network.
It may also look like (based on other "scenarios")
disconnects/reconnects are actually handled gracefully, as in the VPN
software detects or is notified about an update, and writes its own
resolve.conf
Or, could it be that you have some software which interacts with
NetworkManager via dbus and therefore the problem happens?
I'm not quite sure how I can tell.
But I think I'm onto something now: It may actually look like the
problem is caused by IP6 address updates, which I guess are not
controlled by dhclient or the traditional leases mechanism. Maybe I'll
post some more details later...
