Description Rob Crittenden 2011-11-01 18:12:00 UTC 
Description of problem:

This side-effect needs to be documented.

DNS zone dynamic update is disabled if --allow-dynupdate not specified when modifying a DNS zone in either the UI or command-line.

A zone starts with the dynamic update value as TRUE. If you modify anything about the zone and do not include --allow-dynupdate it will be set to false. The following command intends to change the SOA retry only, but the dynamic update is changed to FALSE.

# ipa dnszone-mod example.com --retry=600
  Zone name: example.com
  Authoritative nameserver: ns.example.com.
  Administrator e-mail address: root.example.com.
  SOA serial: 2011311001
  SOA refresh: 3600
  SOA retry: 600
  SOA expire: 1209600
  SOA minimum: 3600
  Active zone: TRUE
  Dynamic update: FALSE
