My main zone (renamed to example.com) is about 800 RRs (if I
interpret RR correctly).<br>
The in-addr.arpa zones have 150-200 entrie.<br>
What you need to know is that this is a FreeIPA environment. The
zones are stored in LDAP.<br>
The DHCP sends its updates to one of the bind servers. These updates
are then replicated in LDAP.<br>

That should be the default. I haven't specifically changed it.<br>

No. Many GBs free disk space. The jnl files that I see are just a
few kbs in size.<br>

One has 8GB. Two others have 128GB (because they run in an LXC/Incus

OK. I have a global understanding what the journal is doing. I went
through the zone.c code before posting this here.<br>
But so far I could not figure out how this message can be triggered.
And also, the systems didn't show this message before upgrading
CentOS.<br>
One system is still at CentOS 8-Stream. The message isn't shown on
that one.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
At the moment I have three FreeIPA systems (replicas),
recently <br>
installed with CentOS 9-Stream.<br>
All three of these show this message at irregular intervals.<br>

I have been running FreeIPA (including the bind nameserver)
for several <br>
years now and I have never seen this message before.<br>
I still have one FreeIPA system running CentOS 8-Stream.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have a clue what it can be? Or how to find out?
There are <br>
close to zero hits when I searched for this on the internet.<br>
How to debug this? (How to debug this in a production
environment, ha ha)<br>
