No I didn't set a server to "partner down". What we wanted to know is
the exact behaviour of a server failure.
Each of the dhcpd server should be able to take over the whole dhcp
lease serving without any user interaction or
am I wrong here?
(Then I have to run the test again with setting the secondary explicitly
down on the primary)
- The curious thing is, the Suse Linux Enterprise dhcpd (3.0.3) runs as
primary in peer-failover configuration without
that problem. Only the self compiled 3.0.5 on the Cent OS 5.2 is not
able to serv the leases in a partner-down situation.
I don't have any hint what is really wrong here ...
I will try to compile a much higher version of dhcpd but a knock out
criteria is the
ldap support, and I didn't read anything about a ldap support in dhcpd
4++ so i am
afraid i have to use the 3.xxx series with the ldap patch (and hopefully
a solution for the serving problem)
