Still seeing some ALG-7 DNSSE

Most likely you have to delete those files manually.

In 9.16.13, a new "dnssec-policy" option is introduced, "purge-keys". By 
default the keys are retained for 90 days after their latest usage. So 
in that case keys will be cleaned up automatically.

If you run a lower version, or if you set "purge-keys 0;" (disabled), 
you have to purge key files manually.

Best regards,

Matthijs

Do I need to do something to get dnsviz and dig +dnssec to stop reporting the old keys or is that like propagation and it will sort itself out? I don't see a pattern in the domains that are still showing alg-7 but it is possible they had the DS/registrar info updated later than the other domains.
