What is the version of dhcp you are using ?
This problem has been fixed in dhcp-3.1.2.
See
http://www.isc.org/files/release-notes/31esv.html
for Changes since 3.1.1
* A partner-down failover server no longer emits 'peer holds all free 
leases' if it is able to newly-allocate one of the peer's leases.
