  36 <p>
  37       <span><strong class="command">named-journalprint</strong></span>
  38       prints the contents of a zone journal file in a human-readable
  39       form.
  40     </p>
  41 <p>
  42       Journal files are automatically created by <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>
  43       when changes are made to dynamic zones (e.g., by
  44       <span><strong class="command">nsupdate</strong></span>).  They record each addition
  45       or deletion of a resource record, in binary format, allowing the
  46       changes to be re-applied to the zone when the server is
  47       restarted after a shutdown or crash.  By default, the name of
  48       the journal file is formed by appending the extension
  49       <code class="filename">.jnl</code> to the name of the corresponding
  50       zone file.
  51     </p>
  52 <p>
  53       <span><strong class="command">named-journalprint</strong></span> converts the contents of a given
  54       journal file into a human-readable text format.  Each line begins
  55       with "add" or "del", to indicate whether the record was added or
  56       deleted, and continues with the resource record in master-file
  57       format.
