Secondary DNS server serving as primary

[sudhakar]

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the response. With reference to my previuos mails I was
wondering what would be the effect bringing the primary server down and
running the secondary DNS server without making any changes in the
secondary.
I'd appreciate your comments and suggestions.

Thanks,

Sudhakar

These files were created by dynamic DNS updates to the 10.10.1/24 and
10.100.1/24 zones.  Your secondary must be configured to allow dynamic DNS
updates for these zones.

Check your logs for more information, especially any logs that were created
from the "update" category.

Since your files are empty, I'd suspect that nothing really happened that
would make any difference.
