Something isn't correct then.  I've never configured the load-balancing mode so 
I couldn't say what to look for specifically other than something general like:

1) make sure that both servers are configured in the same HA mode: 
load-balancing
2) Make sure that both servers are receiving the DHCP traffic (you can check 
with tcpdump to be completely sure)

you can install it on a different machine (in fact you should - not sure you 
can test from the same machine).

yes - that is the parameter.
