Hi,

 

I have a question regarding Infoblox and DNS records.  Once we have Infoblox synched with DNS in read-only mode.  In the unfortnate event that we loose DNS records, lets say they get erased/overriden, by mistake.  Can we use the DNS records in Infoblox to restore our lost DNS records in the DNS server?  Has someone know of a way we can accomplish this?  Thanks.

I'm assuming in this scenario the Infoblox is a secondary name server and the primary name server is not in the Infoblox Grid?

If the primary name server deletes a record, that will get synced to the Infoblox name server and override any data stored. Even if there was a record of the change on the Infoblox side (I don't think there is) it couldn't restore the record as it is a secondary name server. You need to restore on the primary
