DNS Resolver Host Override not working

@Gertjan you think that is something to do with his host override trying to ask pfsense for something... I can not really tell what that error is without more context.

He disabled Resolver Live Sync in DNSBL and it seems to work fine for now.

Resolver Live Sync

I read about this (new ?) option. Not finding much btw.
unbound man pages do not mention them.

Isn't it a somewhat hidden : "do a restart" ?
As far as I know, bind, for example, places "watches" on files, and read them in on the fly when they changed - without a global restart.

@gertjan
It's basically a bunch of unbound-control cmds to change the local-data and local-zone in unbound live db.
Something the DHCP services could do to register new leases.

But now BBcan177 has implemented a Python module to unbound. .
It's faster, has more functionality and doesn't require GBs of memory for unbound.

Ah, if so, then that looks good.
This should be implement upstream (in pfSense itself).
No more x restarts a minute on big networks, thus no more flushing the DNS cache.

And pfBlockerNG users would be really happy (parsing these mega block files take time every restart).
