This morning our server started failing to reload or start. 

checking the status reveals not a lot of info:

We have one dynamically updated zone and only three other zone files that have 
been updated today and named-checkzone says they’re ok.

I'm guessing it’s the zone file after the last successfully loaded one, but we 
have a LOT of zone files; is there a particular order in which they’re loaded 
at startup? I’ve made no changed to named.conf or anything else on this server.
