named-journalprint(8) BIND 9 named-journalprint(8)
NAME
named-journalprint - print zone journal in human-readable form
SYNOPSIS
named-journalprint {journal}
DESCRIPTION
named-journalprint prints the contents of a zone journal file in a
human-readable form.
Journal files are automatically created by named when changes are made
to dynamic zones (e.g., by nsupdate). 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 shut-
down or crash. By default, the name of the journal file is formed by
appending the extension .jnl to the name of the corresponding zone
file.
named-journalprint converts the contents of a given journal file into a
human-readable text format. Each line begins with "add" or "del", to
indicate whether the record was added or deleted, and continues with
the resource record in master-file format.
