[dns-operations] Requesting insight about a RRSIG expiration/renewal issue

Hi all,

I would like your insight on an odd RRSIG expiration/renewal issue.

Zone in question is asininetech.com.  Master nameserver software is BIND
9.10.3-P4-Ubuntu.

Relevant zone config:
zone "asininetech.com" {
       type master;
       file "/etc/bind/master/asininetech.com.zone";
       key-directory "/etc/bind/keys";
       auto-dnssec maintain;
       inline-signing yes;
       allow-transfer {
               xfer;
       };
};


This morning I was made aware of two particular hostnames in that zone
(ivy.asininetech.com, karrin.asininetech.com) SERVFAILing, the error
provided by dnsviz.net:

RRSIG ivy.asininetech.com/A alg 8, id 26091: The Signature Expiration
field of the RRSIG RR (2017-06-30 23:25:12+00:00) is 1 day in the past.
RRSIG ivy.asininetech.com/AAAA alg 8, id 26091: The Signature Expiration
field of the RRSIG RR (2017-06-30 23:25:12+00:00) is 1 day in the past.

I fixed the issue by restarting the BIND daemon. Is this just a case of
BIND missing a key event in its automation or something else?

No other zone or host name under a zone were affected in this manner.

Let me know if I am missing something obvious or if more information is
needed to debug.

Thanks in advance,
