I am in the process of developing a DR (disaster recovery) plan for my primary
masters. Could someone please confirm (or correct me) that a second server in
the "masters {}" statement of a slave zone will only be used in the event that
the first master cannot be reached? Example:
zone "example.com"{
type slave;
masters {
1.1.1.1; // primary-master
2.2.2.2; // primary-master backup
}
I only want 2.2.2.2 to be used when 1.1.1.1 is not available.
I plan on writing a script to add the primary-master backup's IP address to the
masters statement of all slave zones as well as replacing "type: slave;" with
"type: master;" and removing the masters {} statement from the primary-master
backup zones (which are currently slave zones) which will become master zones
in the event of a failure.
All servers are running the most current EL5 BIND package.
Any input or suggestions?
Thanks!
Josh Baird
