What constitutes a "commit"

[Randall C Grimshaw]

only dynamic leases, it does not include static assignments. (so I have been told re 3.x.x)(sadly)

Subject: What constitutes a "commit"

I've got an "on commit" stanza that sends a syslog every time a lease
is committed. Trouble is, I'm not entirely sure exactly what triggers
this condition. I'm getting logs for most clients connecting, but not
all.

Here's a sample of a client coming online and doing a full DHCP
transaction (discover / offer / request / ack), but no commit message.
In this particular case, there are two servers configured for
failover. The logs on the individual servers show a client coming
online:

All fine and dandy. But where is my commit syslog? Here's the stanza I'm using:

on commit {
        if exists host-name {
                log(info, concat(
                        "DHCPCOMMIT ",
                        binary-to-ascii (16, 8, ":", substring (hardware, 1,6)),
                        " ",
                        binary-to-ascii (10, 8, ".", leased-address),
                        " ",
                        binary-to-ascii (10, 32, "", encode-int (lease-time,32)),
                        " ",
                        option host-name
                ));
        } else {
                log(info, concat(
                        "DHCPCOMMIT ",
                        binary-to-ascii (16, 8, ":", substring (hardware, 1,6)),
                        " ",
                        binary-to-ascii (10, 8, ".", leased-address),
                        " ",
                        binary-to-ascii (10, 32, "", encode-int (lease-time,32)),
                        " "
                ));
        }
}

Any ideas?

Thanks

Norman
