I've seen situations where one client can continuously DHCPDECLINE every
address that is allocated essentially marking entire pools abandoned. It goes
like this:
DHCPDISCOVER
DHCPOFFER
DHCPREQUEST
DHCPACK
DHCPDECLINE
DHCPDISCOVER
DHCPOFFER
DHCPREQUEST
DHCPACK
DHCPDECLINE
DHCPDISCOVER
DHCPOFFER
DHCPREQUEST
DHCPACK
DHCPDECLINE
over and over and over again at a very rapid pace. Check your logs for this
type of behavior and remove the offending device from the network if found.

I have also seen this, and if memory serves me, the lease file will show
'state' as "5" for the declined IP's.
