Hi Thomas,
I am running Knot 2.5.2-1 on a Debian Jessie, all is
good, no worries.
I am very pleased with Knot's simplicity and ease of configuration -
which are still readable as well!
I noticed recently that I am getting
knotd[9957]: notice: [$DOMAIN.] journal, obsolete exists, file
'/var/lib/knot/zones/$DOMAIN.db'
everytime I restart Knot. I get these for all my domains I have confgured,
and there is one in particular providing my own .dyn. service :-) - so I
am a bit reluctant - just to delete it.
But all the .db files have a fairly old timestamp (Feb 2017) and about the
same. At that time (Feb 2017) I was running just one authoritative Master
instance, nothing fancy. lsof also doesn't report any open files. At
that time (Feb 2017) I was running just one authoritative Master
instance, nothing else.
Can I just delete those files?
Knot 2.5 keeps all zone journals in a single LMDB database in
/var/lib/knot/journal. It should be safe to delete all the older .db
files. Of course, if I were you, I'd move the .db files away first, and
see that all is still well, before actually deleting them.

Anand
