DNS Zone ExportIn Non-AD Integrated DNS Zones
DNS zone file information is stored by default in the %systemroot%\windows\system32\dns
folder. When the DNS Server service starts it loads zones from these files. This behavior is
limited to any primary and secondary zones that are not AD integrated. The files will be
named as <ZoneFQDN>.dns.
In AD Integrated DNS Zones
AD-integrated zones are stored in the directory they do not have corresponding zone files
i.e. they are not stored as .dns files. This makes sense because the zones are stored in, and
loaded from, the directory. Now it is important task for us to take a backup of these AD
integrated zones before making any changes to DNS infrastructure. Dnscmd.exe can be
used to export the zone to a file. The syntax of the command is:
DnsCmd <ServerName> /ZoneExport <ZoneName> <ZoneExportFile>
<ZoneName> — FQDN of zone to export
/Cache to export cache
As an example, let’s say we have an AD integrated zone named habib.local, our DC is
server1. The command to export the file would be:
Dnscmd server1 /ZoneExport habib.local habib.local.bak
