Re: Peer rebalancing problems (Bob Harold) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2019 15:41:38 -0400 From: Norman Elton <normel...@gmail.com> To: Users of ISC DHCP <dhcp-users@lists.isc.org> Subject: Peer rebalancing problems Message-ID: <CAPCnwUeE4aEMDF=ycph0cnlbez_bptx7r_xepi5uxqh6ap1...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" I've seen references to this in previous posts, but no clear resolution. I've got two RHEL6 boxes (dhcp-4.1.1-63.P1.el6_10) setup in a failover pair. I discovered this morning that one server was stuck in "communications-interrupted" state. Turns out there were two dhcpd processes running simultaneously. Not sure how that happened, but shockingly, it wasn't happy. I've restarted both servers, we're back in normal failover state. But one of my subnets is still not balancing out: landlord01: balancing pool 55814b7e0ad0 WIRELESS-FACSTAFF total 2970 free 58 backup 320 lts -131 max-own (+/-)38 landlord01: balanced pool 55814b7e0ad0 WIRELESS-FACSTAFF total 2970 free 58 backup 320 lts -131 max-misbal 57 landlord02: balancing pool 55d8e05a4aa0 WIRELESS-FACSTAFF total 2970 free 353 backup 0 lts -176 max-own (+/-)35 (requesting peer rebalance!) landlord02: balanced pool 55d8e05a4aa0 WIRELESS-FACSTAFF total 2970 free 353 backup 0 lts -176 max-misbal 53 It seems a little strange that both servers have a negative LTS value. And that they're so different. Is this explainable somehow?

Peer may be out of leases or database inconsistent. I will start googling and post if I discover anything.

It is a pain, but I have not found a better solution. -- Bob Harold On Tue, Sep 3, 2019 at 3:44 PM Norman Elton <normel...@gmail.com> wrote: > Sorry, I just discovered this nugget: > > landlord01: peer wm-dhcp-01-02: Got POOLREQ, answering negatively! > Peer may be out of leases or database inconsistent. > > I will start googling and post if I discover anything. > > Thanks, > > Norman > > On Tue, Sep 3, 2019 at 3:41 PM Norman Elton <normel...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > I've seen references to this in previous posts, but no clear > > resolution.
