Hello,

can i configure my NS1 & NS2 in such a way that if i create example.com zone
on NS1, it will replicate to NS2 automatically?

so far i found that i need to add zones on both servers i.e. NS1 & NS2 in
order to replicate records/updates automatically from NS1 to NS2.

I will appreciate any !

Best Regards,

David

No, because until a DNS server has a zone it has
no interest in replicating that zone.

That is the normal and expected behavior.

You could use DNSCMD.exe to write a procedure
which lists on (or each) server and creates any new
domains it finds on the other server....

It would not be difficult but unless you are going to
do this dozens of times it probably isn't worth the
trouble (e.g., not worth it for 2-10 new zones probably.)

If the DNS servers are on Domain Controllers, you can store the zone in
Active Directory.
