<h2>Synopsis</h2>

<div class="refsect1" lang="en">
<a name="id2612358"></a><h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>
<span><strong class="command">named-journalprint</strong></span>
prints the contents of a zone journal file in a human-readable
form.
</p>
<p>
Journal files are automatically created by <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>
when changes are made to dynamic zones (e.g., by
<span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>). They record each addition
or deletion of a resource record, in binary format, allowing the
changes to be re-applied to the zone when the server is
restarted after a shutdown or crash. By default, the name of
the journal file is formed by appending the extension
<code class="filename">.jnl</code> to the name of the corresponding
zone file.
</p>
<p>
<span><strong class="command">named-journalprint</strong></span> converts the contents of a given
journal file into a human-readable text format. Each line begins
with "add" or "del", to indicate whether the record was added or
deleted, and continues with the resource record in master-file
format.
