Re: DHCP failover failure when peer crashed

No, the DHCP server is doing exactly what it should in that case.   In 
order to reclaim those expired leases, you have to put the surviving server 
into the partner-down state.   It would actually be a nice tweak to the ISC 
server if, when it encountered a disk I/O error, went into the shutdown 
state and stayed there until the disk came back, but this feature has not 
been implemented.
