Better to write a script which would first check the availability of
Virtual IP before doing "rndc reconfig" during a failover. In case the
script does not find the VIP in the first run, you can put in a loop to
check for VIP for N number of times with N number of seconds interval.
The failover time depends mostly on the resources being transferred. If
VIP is the only resource, then the script should pick up the VIP in
about 60-80 seconds.

Thanks for the quick reply. rndc reconfig has the same problem as a
restart. I need to automatically listen to the new ip address without
manual intervention.
"rndc reconfig" need not be manual - surely your cluster software can
execute a script on IP failover?
Anyway, as you've spotted, lowering the listen interval can emulate
this. Personally I'd want bind to respond a bit quicker than 0-60
seconds when a failover occurs.
The other alternative under Linux would be a long-running process
listening to a netlink socket for address changes and exec'ing a
reconfig. I wonder if there is such a beast?
