Deleted DNS Zone... Help.. how do I fix it..

Good morning..

I need some advice..

I deleted a DNS zone by accident... when I was trying to update it... i know... total stupid move... I was clicking too fast.. it was like the 30th zone to be edited..

anyways... so I tried to re-add it cuz i know what it should be more or less.. but the dns editor says it already exists.. but when I try and remove it or edit it the records come up blank.. what do i do to fix this..??

 

Hmm.. nope.. I'm a cpanel newbie... so... we run a cpanel cluster, where should I check on my dns servers on the cluster ..??

 

ok... I checked the named.conf file on the cpanel dns cluster and I did a search on the file for the domain name and it did not find the file anywhere...

now what..??

 

As some additional info, I also checked /var/named/ for the .db file for the domain and it is missing too..

 

....RESOLVED....

For those newbies out there like me that may need some help on this in the future like I did, I'll tell ya how I resolved this issue...

As suggested by Gorilla I checked /etc/named.conf and found that the zone did not exist in named.conf so I then checked /var/named and then looked for the [domainname.com].db file to see if that existed... it didn't...

SO... I checked the server to see what other sites were on the server and found one and copied that .db file and renamed the copy to the domainname.com.db of the missing site. then I pico'd it and inserted the correct values to ensure that it would send visitors to the right site/domain.

then I edited named.conf and inserted the entry for the domain name that was deleted.

I then logged into whm and synced that zone with the rest of our DNS cluster from the server that I did all the editing on so that the new zone would be propigated to the rest of our DNS cluster...

thanks to all those that provided suggestions and help... !
