As part of the process of bringing a DR site online you set the serial to be bigger than the primary site. I suspect you would have the DR site keeping the serial at primary + delta where delta is big enough to swallow any changes that the primary may have made w/o the DR site being aware. The DR site would not supply ixfr deltas initially resulting in a full axfr to all slaves. > Chris Buxton > Professional Services > Men & Mice > -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Australia PHONE: +61 2 9871 4742 INTERNET: ma...@isc.org _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
