Subject: Slaves using catalog zones mysteriously dropped them (responded REFUSED)

Slaves were found to be responding REFUSED to queries for zones they should have been authoritative for. There was no indication in the logs that they had dropped their catalogs. A stop/start on both slaves recovered their state, but it was noted during startup that they both reported syntax errors in the slave files for zones in the catalog. There was next to nothing in the logs to explain why the slaves stopped serving these zones. Could this be due to a misconfiguration, or something else?

I believe this is caused by the same underlying issue as #45310. Note that both slaves were reconfigured at 29-Jun-2017 22:13:30 and lots of "zone <name>: (slave) removed" messages appeared immediately afterwards.

Chuck Aurora confirmed in #45310 that the fix which is to be published in 9.11.2 works for him. Closing.
