OK, this is probably a good idea. But is the scheduled rollover now
meant to be initiated only automatically or how does ods-enforcer
differentiate a scheduled rollover from an emergency one, if they are
both initiated with the same "ods-ksmutil key rollover..." command?
In my case, "ods-ksmutil key rollover -z <zone> --keytype KSK" seems to
introduce a new KSK in the DNSKEY RRset rather than using the standby
KSK. However, this may be due to the fact that my standby KSK is still
in "dspublish" state...I guess the standby KSK will enter "dsready" or
similar after the standby DS has propagated to caches?
