I have an architecture with authoritative PowerDNS servers as follows: - A PowerDNS 4.4.0 server (A), configured as a secondary to a BIND primary, using the bind backend. This has been working just fine for many months.
- A PowerDNS 4.5.1 server (B), configured as a secondary with the above A server as primary, using the bind backend. This is a test installation for the purpose of (eventually) moving the above server A installation to 4.5.1. One of the zones being transferred using normal AXFR is rather large, on the order of 425 Mbyte and 4 million lines. The observed behavior, and the background for my question, is that it takes around 36 seconds from B sending the AXFR command to A, until A starts actually sending data (for this large 425 MByte zone) - verified using packet sniffing. My question: Is this delay of 36 seconds expected? I found I had to increase axfr-fetch-timeout to 60 seconds, because the default of 10 seconds resulted in timeouts and the zone was never transferred.
