Oh, yes. I am aware.

I am asking if anyone has any info as to why it just randomly stopped running perfectly normally at exactly 1PM EST?

Thanks,

The fix is either to remove "dnssec-lookaside auto;" from the config or else set "dnssec-lookaside no;" and then reload 
named.

Did anyone else on CentOS 6 just have some DNS resolvers totally fall over?

I noticed that this command: dnssec-lookaside auto; was causing the 
issue. The issue occurred right at about 1PM EST.

I see this note in the ISC key file..

# ISC DLV: See https://www.isc.org/solutions/dlv for details.

         #

         # NOTE: The ISC DLV zone is being phased out as of February 
2017;

         # the key will remain in place but the zone will be otherwise 
empty.

         # harmless, but is no longer useful and is not recommended.

It's not harmless anymore.
