If hosting split-horizon zones, use --private to distinguish private domains.
route53-transfer --private dump example.com example-private.csv route53-transfer dump example.com example-public.csv
When loading private zones, the target VPC region (--vpc-region) and VPC id (--vpc-id) must be specified.
route53-transfer --private --vpc-region {target vpc region} --vpc-id {target vpc id} load example.com example-private.csv
Use the load and dump functions to move data.
