How do I get the DNS zone records from BIND in a BIND format file?

Is it possible to export those?

-1 - please specify if server that runs bind is under your control, and mention that you have 3000 domains in the question itself. – Sandman4 Dec 7 '11 at 20:22

Aside from.. copying the zone file?

Well, if you've got zone transfers enabled, then you can pull it with dig via a device that's authorized to do the transfer:

dig @nameserver axfr yourdomain.com

you need access to the DNS server in case you cant do what Shane mentioned, your zones might be located as per in /etc/bind/named.conf, then simply tar -zcvf the dir.....
