Say you have a zone test.example.com and it's in 2 view and the zones are linked and both have auto-ptr=true and the reverse zones are also linked. You then add a.test.example.lol A 10.0.10.1 locally to one of the views a PTR record will be created in the reverse zone on both views. First though here is creating local records on a linked zone with auto-ptr should create the ptr record as local also.

Possibly a bigger issue is that if the zone that does not have a.test.example.lol A 10.0.10.1 then happens to create it and eithre zones subsequently delete it the records PTR records on both view will be deleted even only 1 A record was removed.

A similar bug occurs if both linked zones have an a local A record if one udates the IP both PTR records are updated
