Thanks, Christian. Interesting that the ordername column was added in 3.0, but the schema file in the 3.0 tag (https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/blob/auth-3.0/pdns/no-dnssec.schema.pgsql.sql) doesn't include that column. Thanks for clearing it up from me.
Interestingly, I'm coming from 3.0.1 and my database does not have that column in it. But the consolidated script definitely helped.
