But pesky red down arrow still persisted and I erroneously thought that it has something to do with my attempt to configure failover before authorizing second DHCP server. In the end solution turned out to be more trivial: it was necessary to restart DHCP service on 2nd server and after this DHCP console – voila, problem fixed! So once again.
I have run into a strange DHCP problem. The thing is the service is running, but the DHCP is not authorized. However, when I try to do it by right clicking, the option to authorize is not there - I can only choose to unathorize it. (Sorry, can't includa a SS).
When I click unauthorize, I get the error 'The parameter is incorrect.' So now I'm stuck with unauthorized DHCP server that for some reason only can be authorized. I have tried all the usual stuff except re-installing the service. Anyone here have a clue what it can be?

Have you tried to unauthorize DHCP-server this way? >>
- Open DHCP snap-in.
- In the console tree, click DHCP.
- On the Action menu, click Manage authorized servers.
- The Manage Authorized Servers dialog box appears.
- In Authorized DHCP servers, select the server you want to unauthorize.
- Click Unauthorize.
