Does your new director work?

I'm not sure what the expected behaviour is here, but the 
syncd only transfers enough information for the backup 
director to take over as the active director - i.e. only the 
connection table and the active connections (connections in 
FIN_WAIT etc aren't transferred). When you go back to the 
original director, you're probably seeing it's original 
connection count before failover.

Hopefully someone who knows will pop up and straighten us 
out
