The below note seems somewhat trollish but I've been running an
ISC DHCP server on Solaris since May of 1997 and it has
never stopped once.  If you want redundancy, just use
two different ranges on two different servers.  Instant
redundancy.  We have issued over 10K leases from a single 
machine with no more backup them periodic ftp of the leases 
databases and mirrored drives.
