This works for me and is the standard method:<br>
<br>
rndc freeze<br>
update serial<br>
rndc thaw<br>
<br>
Rndc freeze merges the .jnl files into the zone files and stops
dynamic updates. Thaw allows dynamic updates to resume.<br>

Disable updating on the old master.
Transfer the zone contents by setting up as a slave
using "masterfile-format text"; or using by using dig.
This will give you the most up to date version of the
zone.
dig axfr zone +onesoa @oldmaster
Check that the new server is working

Converting the new secondary to a new master worked. But incrementing
the zone's serial number did not, producing an error after 'rndc reload'
like this:
Oct 3 16:00:29 host named[35249]: malformed transaction:
dynamic/mydomain.com/mydomain.com.db.jnl last serial 2013092701 !=
transaction first serial 2013092700

the zone by using nsupdate.

Although the zone file lives under dynamic/mydomain.com so DNSSEC
updates can happen, I don't have dynamic updates configured, so nsupdate
won't work. This arrangement -- with static zone files under the dynamic
directory -- worked OK on the old master. Permissions are the same on both.
This thread suggested the journal issue was separate views pointing to
the same zone file:

Indeed I had pointers to the same zone file in separate views, but
removing them and restarting named did not clear the issue. Now I have
the zone in just one view, and still can't manually increment the serial
number without that journal complaint.
Thanks in advance for clues on resolving the journal version issue.

Convert the old master server into a slave.
Update the other slaves to talk to a new master.
