Reset-DnsServerZoneKeyMasterRole is accessible with the help of DnsServer module. To configure DnsServer, go through this link.
Synopsis
Transfers the role of Key Master for a DNS zone.
Description
The Reset-DnsServerZoneKeyMasterRole cmdlet transfers the role of DNS Security (DNSSEC) Key Master server. Any authoritative Domain Name System (DNS) server that hosts a primary copy of the zone can be the Key Master server.
This cmdlet attempts to connect to the current Key Master server. If it cannot connect to that server, the cmdlet does not make the change unless you specify SeizeRole.
This cmdlet prompts the user for confirmation before it transfers the role unless you use the Force switch.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

Syntax
Reset-DnsServerZoneKeyMasterRole [-ZoneName] <String> [-Force] [[-KeyMasterServer] <String>] [-SeizeRole] [-PassThru] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
—————EXAMPLE 1—————
Transfer the role
PS C:> Reset-DnsServerZoneKeyMasterRole -ZoneName “Delhi.TOSSolution.com” -KeyMasterServer “Bang.TOSSolution.com”
