That's a neat trick.

The primary's entry indicates clearly that the secondary
acknowledged the lease as being in that state.  There's
no reason for the primary to retransmit that lease's
state.

The secondary's entry looks as though it never got the
expired binding update from the primary (whose ACK it
would send to tell the primary to move from expired to
free).


Did you roll back to an older leases database?

Has the secondary been having a bout of restarts?
