Debugging Information Lacking?

I have some other issues that I'm trying to work through, but I wanted to ask about a specific issue. 


I'm trying to see what BIND currently thinks all of the zones are, so I issue the "rndc dumpdb -zones" command. 


I get the following output: 



Nov 27 07:36:26 DNA-DNS1 named[20035]: received control channel command 'trace 99' 
Nov 27 07:36:26 DNA-DNS1 named[20035]: debug level is now 99 
Nov 27 07:36:28 DNA-DNS1 named[20035]: received control channel command 'dumpdb -zones' 
Nov 27 07:36:28 DNA-DNS1 named[20035]: dumpdb started: -zones 
Nov 27 07:36:28 DNA-DNS1 named[20035]: dumpdb complete 




However, it appears no file is generated. "find / -name cache_dump.db" doesn't return anything. 


The log says that dumpdb is complete, but it doesn't say what it wrote. I would expect the log file to say something like: 



Nov 27 07:36:28 DNA-DNS1 named[20035]: dumpdb output to: /var/lib/bind/ cache_dump.db 


It doesn't. Could we get that added to the logging information? 



root at DNA-DNS1:/var/lib/bind# named -v 
BIND 9.10.3-P4-Debian <id:ebd72b3> 
root at DNA-DNS1:/var/lib/bind# cat /etc/debian_version 
9.11
