They record each addition 62 or deletion of a resource record, in binary format, allowing the 63 changes to be re-applied to the zone when the server is 64 restarted after a shutdown or crash. By default, the name of 65 the journal file is formed by appending the extension 66 <filename>.jnl</filename> to the name of the corresponding 67 zone file. 68 </para> 69 <para> 70 <command>named-journalprint</command> converts the contents of a given 71 journal file into a human-readable text format. Each line begins 72 with "add" or "del", to indicate whether the record was added or 73 deleted, and continues with the resource record in master-file 74 format. 75 </para> 76 </refsect1> 77 78 <refsect1> 79 <title>SEE ALSO</title> 80 <para> 81 <citerefentry> 82 <refentrytitle>named</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> 83 </citerefentry>, 84 <citerefentry> 85 <refentrytitle>nsupdate</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> 86 </citerefentry>, 87 <citetitle>BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual</citetitle>. 88 </para> 89 </refsect1> 90 91 <refsect1> 92 <title>AUTHOR</title> 93 <para><corpauthor>Internet Systems Consortium</corpauthor> 94 </para> 95 </refsect1> 96 97</refentry><!-- 98 - Local variables: 99 - mode: sgml 100 - End: 101--> 102
