AltostratusA way to force DNS express zone reload?
Is there a way to manually trigger a DNS express zone transfer on BIG-IP? A client requires the ability to reload/refresh the DNS express zone when changes are made on the master nameserver.

When changes are made on the authoritative server, this should trigger a NOTIFY message from that server to DNS Express, which should then instigate a zone transfer.
See the right hand side of the second diagram here:

Hmmm, can't imagine there's another way other than restarting DNS Express itself, even then I'd test to make sure;
bigstart restart zxfrdDNS Express services will of course be down for a short time.

This works for me:
Go into the DNS Express zone properties for your domain and then select State -> DISABLED, click update. Then State -> Enabled, update.
