NAME
sig_named - send signals to the domain name server
SYNOPSIS
sig_named [-v][debug [+] debug-level dump kill restart stats trace ]
DESCRIPTION
sig_named sends the appropriate signal to the domain name server /usr/sbin/named. The process
ID is obtained from /var/run/named.pid or from ps(1) if /var/run/named.pid does not exist.
Options
sig_named recognizes the following options and command-line arguments:
-v Verify that the name server is running before sending the signal. The verification is
done using ps (see ps(1)).
debug [+]debug-level
Set the debugging output sent to /var/tmp/named.run to debug-level. If debug-
ging is already on, it is turned off before the debug level is set. If
+ precedes debug-
level, the current debugging level is raised by the amount indicated. If debug-level is
zero, debugging is turned off.
dump Signal the name server to dump its database. The database is dumped to
/var/tmp/named_dump.db
.
kill Kill the name server process.
restart Signal the name server to reload its database.
stats Remove the old statistics file, /var/tmp/named.stats
. Signal the name server
to dump its statistics. Show the statistics file on the standard output.
trace Toggles tracing of incoming queries to /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log.
