Edited original post since I got it back up and running for now, but the underlying issue is still there.
Randomly, when I restart named it decides to delete all the information in /var/named/chroot/var/named. I then have to restore a backup. This time it failed as follows:
Code:
[root@server03 ~]# service named restart
Stopping named: [ OK ]
Starting named:

How can I stop it from doing that? This is a pretty serious issue, and there seems to be little information out there on named/bind configuration. Those names tend to pull up lot of irrelevant results so it's just hard to find any good info.
My OS is CentOS 6.5.
