The dump file's configurable in named.conf (or presumable named.custom
too.) In a non-chrooted environment it's dumped into /var/named/data/
You can also do an "rndc dumpdb" to get the cache dump.
[root@willspc wmcdonald]# rndc
Usage: rndc [-c config] [-s server] [-p port]
[-k key-file ] [-y key] [-V] command
command is one of the following:
reload Reload configuration file and zones.
reload zone [class [view]]
Reload a single zone.
refresh zone [class [view]]
Schedule immediate maintenance for a zone.
reconfig Reload configuration file and new zones only.
stats Write server statistics to the statistics file.
querylog Toggle query logging.
dumpdb Dump cache(s) to the dump file (named_dump.db).
stop Save pending updates to master files and stop the server.
halt Stop the server without saving pending updates.
trace Increment debugging level by one.
trace level Change the debugging level.
notrace Set debugging level to 0.
flush Flushes all of the server's caches.
flush [view] Flushes the server's cache for a view.
