Once you have activated DNS scavenging is there a log file you can monitor to
see what records are being or going to be deleted from the scavenging process

I don't think THIS is in the Log (neither the basic/error nor the debug
logs) -- but
it is a property on each record which you can get at in batch mode using
DNSCmd.exe.

Why do you need to monitor this? Generally make your Scavenge (related)
times LONG and don't try to hurry the process too much.

Thanks Martin – The purpose I ask this q is not for monitoring the scavenging
operation instead of to keep track/build database/archive of all the
dynamically registered host names in the DNS sever for the record purpose.

Then likely DNSCmd.exe will do what you wish.

Thanks Martin - You mean which option in the dnscmd command.
