Hi, A large zone is frozen with 'rndc freeze', changes are done to the zone file, DDNS updates are enabled again with 'rndc thaw'. I can see the following series of events in the logs (filtered):
05-May-2009 13:08:10.466 notify: info: zone corp.internal.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 2012410499) 05-May-2009 13:08:15.659 general: debug 1: freezing zone ' corp.internal.com/IN': success 05-May-2009 13:08:15.686 notify: info: zone corp.internal.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 2012410504) 05-May-2009 13:16:05.602 general: debug 1: thawing zone ' corp.internal.com/IN': success 05-May-2009 13:16:06.670 general: info: journal file db.corp.internal.com.jnl does not exist, creating it 05-May-2009 13:16:06.698 notify: info: zone corp.internal.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 2012410505) 05-May-2009 13:16:11.742 notify: info: zone corp.internal.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 2012410509) 05-May-2009 13:16:16.720 notify: info: zone corp.internal.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 2012410513) 05-May-2009 13:16:19.334 general: info: zone corp.internal.com/IN: loaded serial 2012410506 05-May-2009 13:16:21.726 notify: info: zone corp.internal.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 2012410506) 05-May-2009 13:16:22.762 general: error: malformed transaction: db.corp.internal.com.jnl last serial 2012410513 != transaction first serial 2012410506 Between 'thawing zone' and 'loaded serial 2012410506' DDNS updates are received and applied and written to the journal. Even notifies are sent for those changes. The last DDNS updates written to the journal file puts the serial to 2012410513 (notify sent for this). After that named loaded the zone file with serial 2012410506. The very next DDNS update received causes a 'malformed transaction'. After this point DDNS updates don't work any more. Is named supposed to process DDNS updates after receiving the thaw command but before completely loading the zone file ? This is with BIND 9.6.0-P1 on Solaris 10. Regards, Tom
