Actually, that's where drbd comes in.  It's essentially a RAID1 over the

Did you have failovers and they were successful?

I thought that dhcpd keeps its state information in memory (at least partly) and that therefore drdb is not sufficient. I'm going to look that up, if all state is on disk Linux-HA might really be a possibility.
