Description

I have 2 openvpn clients with GW Group configured.
While Tier1 interface (PPPoE) was going down the two openvpn crashed. After 12 min I restarted them manually.

After the PPPoE interface is up, the openvpn clients still use Tier2 and didn't fall back to Tier1.

perhaps this would help: --remap-usr1 SIGHUP
I don't know how you handle openvpn exactly. Have you send SIGUSR1? At what time do you replace the config file?

--remap-usr1 signal
    Control whether internally or externally generated SIGUSR1 signals are remapped to SIGHUP (restart without persisting state) or SIGTERM (exit).

    signal can be set to "SIGHUP" or "SIGTERM". By default, no remapping occurs.
