DNS issues during power outages is the least of your problems, as chances are your Internet and all your PCs are down as well.


Also, having two Raspberry Pi for primary and secondary dns is good practice, in case something goes wrong with the main one.


Why not run pi-hole in one of those kubernetes cluster for Raspberry Pi, and don't forget a set up a UPS for redundant power supply.

Or: in the rare eventuality that your raspberry pi dies, it takes 15 seconds to open your router interface and reset to the ISP DNS. Work smart, not hard.


I dare you to tell my wife how easy it is. I still remember OpenDNS being blocked in France the exact day I went for business trip and me not anticipating it (I didn't remember it was set in pi-hole)
