RE: Request to provide procedure for bind upgrade
This is a question about the operating system, not BIND. There are a number of ways. You can enable rollbacks in RPM, you can keep snaphots... you're not going to run into incompatible upgrades in BIND during a simple patching. -- *Note: UMDNJ is now Rutgers-Biomedical and Health Sciences* || \\UTGERS |-*O*- ||_// Biomedical | Ryan Novosielski - Senior Technologist || \\ and Health | novos...@rutgers.edu - 973/972.0922 (2x0922) || \\ Sciences | OIRT/High Perf Res Comp - MSB C630, Newark `' From: bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org [bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org] On Behalf Of Sundram Bharti [sundram.bha...@ericsson.com] Sent: Monday, February 16, 2015 10:16 AM To: bind-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Request to provide procedure for bind upgrade Hi Team, My DNS current version is BIND 9.8.4-P1 and OS is Fedora Core release 6 (Zod).

RE: Request to provide procedure for bind upgrade
Good point. Fedora isn't really a good choice for Production systems - it is bleeding edge with short life cycle (usually new version is out 6 months later and they only support the most recent 2.) Fedora is used as a test bed for what ends up in RHEL later. RHEL has much longer life cycle but requires a paid subscription for updates. CentOS is a binary recompile from RHEL sources that doesn't require a paid subscription. The question is whether you need vendor support for the OS. If yes then RHEL would be the way to go. If not CentOS would work. Note that RHEL6 and CentOS6 are NOT the same as Fedora 6 - they are much later. Also RHEL7 and CentOS7 are out so if you're reloading to new OS you should start with those rather than RHEL6/CentOS6. -Original Message- From: bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org [mailto:bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org] On Behalf Of Chuck Anderson Sent: Monday, February 16, 2015 11:17 AM To: Sundram Bharti Cc: bind-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Re: Request to provide procedure for bind upgrade Fedora Core 6 is no longer supported.

RE: Request to provide procedure for bind upgrade
The package is “bind” not “named”. The daemon is called “named”. You can type “rpm –qf $(which named)” to determine which package installed that daemon. (Likely it was bind.) Also if you’re running the chroot’ed version you’d want the package “bind-chroot”. I’d suggest you run “rpm –qa |grep –i bind” to see what BIND packages you have installed. Note you should ignore things like “ypbind” if installed as that is part of NIS rather than BIND. You can then do “yum list package” against packages to see if there are newer versions without installing them. e.g. if you saw things like bind-libs, bind-utils, bind, system-config-bind, bind-chroot in the output of “rpm –qa” (it will also show version on these) Do “yum list bind-libs bind-utils bind system-config-bind bind-chroot” which will show you both the installed versions you have and the latest available packages for update in the repository. Ideally you have more than one DNS server and would only update one, test it to be sure everything is working, then update the next one.
