[nsd-users] Update failed restarting transfer (notifed zone)

There is plenty of RAM still available on the system though, I am using 3.1.1 Version on RH Linux 3.2. In my case it is very frequent, purposefully I didn?t run ?nsdc patch? for couple of days. I did nsdc patch, rebuild and reload. Nothing seems to fix the problem, I had to restart ?nsd? to fix. 1222475586] nsd[15205]: info: Notify received and accepted, forward to xfrd [1222475586] nsd[15201]: warning: Reload process 15206 failed with status 256, continuing with old database [1222475586] nsd[13390]: error: xfrd: zone test.com: soa serial 2003384267 update failed restarting transfer (notified zone) [1222475586] nsd[13390]: info: Handle incoming notify for zone test.com [1222475586] nsd[13390]: info: Handle incoming notify for zone biz.com [1222475586] nsd[13390]: info: Handle incoming notify for zone biz.com [1222475593] nsd[15201]: warning: signal received, reloading...
