For example, if I have a primary dns with the entry foo.bar.com pointing to 111.111.111.111 and say a secondary DNS server for that domain without that record. If i power off the primary DNS server all queries for that domain should go to the secondary,but if foo.bar.com is not in the secondary - it will not point there?? right?? or is there somehting i am missing? Or do you have to update the primary along with the secondary everytime you want a record added for redundancy?
