Title: Purpose of "secondary dns"
Post by: fossxplorer on 2017-04-03, 11:59:19
@mustafa,
now that i have one slave (with Kloxo-MR master and CentOS7) that seems to work, i wonder that you recommend of DNS setup. I came over https://forum.mratwork.com/kloxo-mr-tips-and-tricks/cluster-dns-how-to-kloxo-mr-and-powerdns/.

What's the purpose of  "secondary dns"? 
For the clients i'm planning to be placed on the slave server (DB, mail and web), will they still be using master control panel? I plan to keep the DNS on the master. Then i'll simply rsync all the zones from master to slave and reload bind on slave, say every 10 mins. Do you think it's a good idea?

So my name servers should look like:
ns1 => Master IP 1
ns2 => master IP 2
ns3 => slave IP 1
ns4 => slave IP 2


Before i create a new DNS template, it's good to know that i'm not on the wrong track.

I'm using WHMCS so i can see that it supports different DNS, web, DB, mail for the provisioning.

With 'secondary dns' you can make your server as 'slave/secondary dns' for domain.
