They record each addition +or deletion of a resource record, in binary format, allowing the changes +to be re\-applied to the zone when the server is restarted after a +shutdown or crash. By default, the name of the journal file is formed by +appending the extension \fB\&.jnl\fP to the name of the corresponding zone +file. +.sp +\fBnamed\-journalprint\fP converts the contents of a given journal file +into a human\-readable text format. Each line begins with \fBadd\fP or \fBdel\fP, +to indicate whether the record was added or deleted, and continues with +the resource record in master\-file format. +.sp +The \fB\-c\fP (compact) option provides a mechanism to reduce the size of +a journal by removing (most/all) transactions prior to the specified +serial number. Note: this option \fImust not\fP be used while \fI\%named\fP is +running, and can cause data loss if the zone file has not been updated +to contain the data being removed from the journal. Use with extreme caution. +.sp +The \fB\-x\fP option causes additional data about the journal file to be +printed at the beginning of the output and before each group of changes. +.sp +The \fB\-u\fP (upgrade) and \fB\-d\fP (downgrade) options recreate the journal +file with a modified format version. The existing journal file is +replaced. \fB\-d\fP writes out the journal in the format used by +versions of BIND up to 9.16.11; \fB\-u\fP writes it out in the format used +by versions since 9.16.13. (9.16.12 is omitted due to a journal\-formatting +bug in that release.) Note that these options \fImust not\fP be used while +\fI\%named\fP is running. +.SH SEE ALSO +.sp +\fI\%named(8)\fP, \fI\%nsupdate(1)\fP, BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual. +.SH AUTHOR +Internet Systems Consortium +.SH COPYRIGHT +2023, Internet Systems Consortium +.\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. +. |
