You would add the following to your failover script to delete the host and reverse lookup
entries and add new entries associating the source to the target.
dnscmd DNSServer.domain.com /RecordDelete domain.com alpha A 192.168.1.108
/f
dnscmd DNSServer.domain.com /RecordDelete 192.168.in-addr.arpa 108.1 PTR
alpha.domain.com /f
dnscmd DNSServer.domain.com /RecordAdd domain.com alpha A 116.123.2.47
dnscmd DNSServer.domain.com /RecordAdd 116.123.in-addr.arpa 47.2 PTR
