    Implement a convenience function for "rndc dumpdb" · 841be8d0
    Michał Kępień authored
    Add a helper shell function, rndc_dumpdb(), which provides a convenient
    way to call "rndc dumpdb" for a given server with optional additional
    arguments.  Since database dumping is an asynchronous process, the
    function waits until the dump is complete before returning, which
    prevents false positives in system tests caused by inspecting the dump
    before its preparation is finished.  The function also renames the dump
    file before returning so that it does not get overwritten by subsequent
    calls; this retains forensic data in case of an unexpected test failure.
