I'm running powerdns (authoritative) with the BIND backend as a slave / secondary. I needed to update the master / primary IP addresses, preferably without any downtime.
I updated the "masters" configuration of the relevant zones in the named.conf file, and did a "pdns_control rediscover". I was pleased to see that the new master / primary IP addresses were picked up. However, i couldn't find this documented anywhere. The "rediscover" documentation at https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/backends/bind.html simply says "Reread the BIND configuration file (named.conf). If parsing fails, the old configuration remains in force and pdns_control reports the error. Any newly discovered domains are read, discarded domains are removed from memory." Maybe add a sentence "Changes in primary IP addresses will be honored" or something along those lines?
