I use mysql backend and SOA serial set to 0 in datebase for auto-serial features. But sometime come occasion we must update one record in database directly, not using DNSUPDATE. In this case how to tell pdns please update SOA serial? I cant find pdns_control, pdnsutil command for this.


Hi,

if you execute pdnsutil w/o any options it lists all available commands.
There you can find:

"increase-serial ZONE    Increases the SOA-serial by 1. Uses SOA-EDIT"

oh Thanks! The manpage is out of date :)
still, it didn't work with auto-serial configuration:

pdnsutil increase-serial example.org
Error: Parsing record content (try 'pdnsutil check-zone'): missing field at the end of record content 'ns.example.org cont...@example.org 0'

pdnsutil check-zone example.org
Checked 21 records of 'example.org', 0 errors, 0 warnings.


Related, where is serial stored in auto-serial case? I find
"change_date" field NULL on all records and "notified_serial" NULL on
this domain (but its 0 on the other domains, not sure why). In this
situation what happens if server reboot, SOA has to be reclaimed from
somewhere??


As far as I know this can be found in the table "records", column "content", for every entry of the type "SOA". It corresponds to the provided serial number
you get with   "dig <zone> SOA"   (if no DNSSEC is active).

Well for auto-serial you must set that value as 0 so my question being where the serial is kept in this special case and carried across reboot situation.
