How to dynamically remove unpingable "A" records and add when host becomes pingable

Does anyone have a script or software they use so that I can automatically update my "A" records when a host is unavailable. i.e. www.mywebserver.com has 2 IP addresses (A records): 1.1.1.1, 2.2.2.2 When 2.2.2.2 becomes unpingable, I would like to remove it's "A" record so it is only 1.1.1.1 When

As per the other answers I've seen posted, such a delay is often caused by notifies not reaching the slave from the master. In such a case, you would not expect a delay of a fixed time, but rather delays over a limited range of times, e.g. up to 15 minutes. A notify is a kind of DNS query, norma
