Details are **version** for the running + server version, **workers** for the numbers of worker threads, + or **configure** for the configure summary. + +**stop** + Stop the server if running. + +**reload** + Reload the server configuration and modified zone files. All open zone + transactions will be aborted! + +**stats** [*module*\ [\ **.**\ *counter*\ ]] + Show global statistics counter(s). To print also counters with value 0, use + force option. + +**zone-status** *zone* [*filter*] + Show the zone status. Filters are **+role**, **+serial**, **+transaction**, + **+events**, and **+freeze**. + +**zone-check** [*zone*...] + Test if the server can load the zone. Semantic checks are executed if enabled + in the configuration. (*) + +**zone-memstats** [*zone*...] + Estimate memory use for the zone. (*) + +**zone-reload** [*zone*...] + Trigger a zone reload from a disk without checking its modification time. For + slave zone, the refresh from a master server is scheduled; for master zone, + the notification of slave servers is scheduled. An open zone transaction + will be aborted! + +**zone-refresh** [*zone*...] + Trigger a check for the zone serial on the zone's master. If the master has a + newer zone, a transfer is scheduled. This command is valid for slave zones. + +**zone-retransfer** [*zone*...] + Trigger a zone transfer from the zone's master. The server doesn't check the + serial of the master's zone. This command is valid for slave zones. + +**zone-notify** [*zone*...] + Trigger a NOTIFY message to all configured remotes. This can help in cases + when previous NOTIFY had been lost or the slaves offline. + +**zone-flush** [*zone*...] [**+outdir** *directory*] + Trigger a zone journal flush into the zone file. If output dir is specified, + instead of flushing the zonefile, the zone is dumped to a file in the specified + directory. + +**zone-sign** [*zone*...] + Trigger a DNSSEC re-sign of the zone. Existing signatures will be dropped. + This command is valid for zones with DNSSEC signing enabled. + +**zone-ksk-submitted** *zone*... + Use when the zone's KSK rollover is in submittion phase. By calling this command + the user confirms manually that the parent zone contains DS record for the new + KSK in submission phase and the old KSK can be retired. + +**zone-freeze** [*zone*...] + Temporarily postpone zone-changing events (load, refresh, update, flush, and + DNSSEC signing). + +**zone-thaw** [*zone*...] + Dismiss zone freeze. + +**zone-read** *zone* [*owner* [*type*]] + Get zone data that are currently being presented. + +**zone-begin** *zone*... + Begin a zone transaction. + +**zone-commit** *zone*... + Commit the zone transaction.

[*filter*...] + Purge zone data, zone file, journal, timers, and/or KASP data of specified zones. + Available filters are **+expire**, **+zonefile**, **+journal**, **+timers**, + and **+kaspdb**. If no filter is specified, all filters are enabled. + If the zone is no longer configured, add **+orphan** filter (zone file cannot + be purged in this case). + +**zone-stats** *zone* [*module*\ [\ **.**\ *counter*\ ]] + Show zone statistics counter(s). To print also counters with value 0, use + force option. + +**conf-init** + Initialize the configuration database. (*) + +**conf-check** + Check the server configuration.

(*) + +**conf-export** [*filename*] + Export the configuration database into a config file or stdout. (*) + +**conf-list** [*item*] + List the configuration database sections or section items. + +**conf-read** [*item*] + Read the item from the active configuration database. + +**conf-begin** + Begin a writing configuration database transaction. Only one transaction + can be opened at a time. + +**conf-commit** + Commit the configuration database transaction. + +**conf-abort** + Rollback the configuration database transaction. + +**conf-diff** [*item*] + Get the item difference in the transaction. + +**conf-get** [*item*] + Get the item data from the transaction. + +**conf-set** *item* [*data*...] + Set the item data in the transaction. + +**conf-unset** [*item*] [*data*...] + Unset the item data in the transaction. + +Note +.... + +Empty or **--** *zone* parameter means all zones or all zones with a transaction. + +Use **@** *owner* to denote the zone name. + +Type *item* parameter in the form of *section*\ [**[**\ *id*\ **]**\ ][**.**\ *name*]. + +(*) indicates a local operation which requires a configuration. + +Interactive mode +................ + +The utility provides interactive mode with basic line editing functionality, +command completion, and command history. + +Interactive mode behavior can be customized in `~/.editrc`.
