Partner Down State

[Bjarne Blichfeldt]

We are using the following script :

#!/bin/sh
#
#---------------------------------------------------------
# Set dhcp server in partner down state
#---------------------------------------------------------
$PATHTODHCPDDIR/omshell << EOF
connect
new failover-state
set name = "Name-of-your-failover-peer-in-configfile"
open
set local-state = 4
update
EOF



Kind regards
Bjarne Blichfeldt

Hi

I am operating two ISC DHCP servers as active/backup.
However during an outage I would like to operate the backup server in "partner down" state so that it can utilize all the IP's.Any suggestion how can I manually place the backup server in partner down state.I have checked there is a script that can be used but that's not working for me will appreciate it someone can help me out here.

Regards,
Waqas Asghar
