pfSense

This Bug is related to the bugfix of Bug #4854

When CARP goes to backup on let say pfsense#1, it stops openvpn and it start the openvpn on the new master let it name pfsense#2. When i speak of openvpn it means a openvpn client.

However, when we go back to Master on pfsense#1, it starts the openvon on pfsense#1. But why is it restarted on pfsense#2??? This causes me a lot of Problems, because the openvpn Clients try to reconnect and throw out the newly started Clients on pfsense#1.

But what is strange, is that the openvpn Clients on pfsense#2 are shown as stoped in the Services Status. The logs say something different, the are restarting because of inactivity. Even ps -ax Shows that the Clients are still running...

What Comes to my mind, is that openvpn_restart('client', $Settings) does not really stop / terminate the openvpn Clients. So in the rc.carpbackup the command openvpn_restart only tiggers the restart of openvpn Clients, because they are currently running. How can you stop them? Something like

+openvpn_stop('client', $settings);
-openvpn_restart('client', $settings);
