Hello,

I have 2 DHCP-Servers configured with DHCP-FO. And in the last days I have a
strange behaviour:

Feb 16 09:09:40 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: peer moves from
communications-interrupted to partner-down
Feb 16 09:09:44 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: peer update completed.
Feb 16 09:09:44 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: I move from recover to
recover-wait
Feb 16 09:10:50 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: I move from recover-wait
to recover
Feb 16 09:10:51 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: peer moves from
partner-down to recover
Feb 16 09:10:51 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: requesting full update
from peer
Feb 16 09:10:57 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: peer update completed.
Feb 16 09:10:57 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: I move from recover to
recover-done
Feb 16 09:10:59 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: peer moves from recover
to recover-done
Feb 16 09:10:59 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: I move from recover-done
to normal
Feb 16 09:10:59 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: peer moves from
recover-done to normal
Feb 16 10:07:55 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: failover peer PNW: I move from *normal to
recover-done*

and in this state it was 2 hours until I noticed.

I could not find any explanation in the DHCP Handbook where there is a
change from normal to recover-done

Feb 16 09:09:30 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: Disabling output on
LPF/eth0/00:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Feb 16 09:09:30 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: Disabling input on
LPF/eth0/00:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Feb 16 09:09:40 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: Listening on
LPF/eth0/00:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Feb 16 09:09:40 xxxxxxxx dhcpd: Sending on
LPF/eth0/00:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Do you have any idea, why a server that finnished the recover state and
switching to normal state falling back to the recover-done state and stays
there?

Is the disabling output/input LPF normal?

thanx a lot for all your help,
cheers,
Juergen
