You need only use a very large value to get a lease that it is virtually
infinite. So long as the value is no more than max for 32-bit signed
integer you should be fine.

Thanks Sten for your reply.
In our understanding the tool kea-admin lease-init, initialize the
PostgresDB with the right schema defined for Kea
The way data is stored in PostgresDB is defined by Kea schema, which
is defined here:
https://github.com/isc-projects/kea/blob/master/src/share/database/scripts/pgsql/dhcpdb_create.pgsql
Where valid_lifetime is define as:
valid_lifetime BIGINT,
And according to PostgreSQL doc is:
bigint 8 bytes large-range integer -9223372036854775808 to
+9223372036854775807
So is there a problem with the schema for PostgreSQL ?
Thanks,
Laurent.

Hi,
We deployed KEA 1.5 with a postgresql DB without any issue. We
have an application which asks for IP addresses with an infinite
lease.
When KEA receives the request, we see the following error:

How is your definition of the lease time field in the database? this
value requires 33 bits to be stored.
Everything works fine if we use csv file to store the leases
instead of postgres.
Yes, not limited by a fixed number of bits.
Any idea why such leases can’t be stored in the DB ?
