286N/A <
span class="command"><
strong>named-journalprint</
strong></
span>
286N/A prints the contents of a zone journal file in a human-readable
286N/A Journal files are automatically created by <
span class="command"><
strong>named</
strong></
span>
286N/A when changes are made to dynamic zones (
e.g., by
286N/A <
span class="command"><
strong>nsupdate</
strong></
span>). They record each addition
286N/A or deletion of a resource record, in binary format, allowing the
286N/A changes to be re-applied to the zone when the server is
286N/A restarted after a shutdown or crash. By default, the name of
286N/A the journal file is formed by appending the extension
286N/A <
code class="filename">.jnl</
code> to the name of the corresponding
286N/A <
span class="command"><
strong>named-journalprint</
strong></
span> converts the contents of a given
286N/A journal file into a human-readable text format. Each line begins
286N/A with "add" or "del", to indicate whether the record was added or
286N/A deleted, and continues with the resource record in master-file
