How can i export all zones on our DNS server for backup purposes?
we have over 300 DNS zones created on our primary DNS server. is there an easy way using dnscmd.exe to backup all zones and records, without having to list each zone specifically in the script?
thanks in advance,
S.

these are all primary zones, none are AD Integrated zones.
again, I'm looking for a way to run a script to capture all zones and associated records, without having to list each zone individually. there are 300+
thx

dnscmd /ZoneExport FQDN_of_zonename Zone_export_file
Examples of using the command:
* dnscmd /ZoneExport Microsoft.local MSzone.txt
This exports the Microsoft.local zone on the local server to a file called MSzone.txt in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Dns folder.
* dnscmd centurion /ZoneExport reskit.Microsoft.com reskit.dns
This export the reskit.Microsoft.com zone on the server named Centurion to a file named Reskit.dns in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Dns folder on the server named Centurion.
