I found a similar issue related to this topic in 1.2.6-S1, script on-dhcp-event.sh can't to determine pdns_recursor PID

vyos@vyos# ps ax | grep pdns
 6626 ?        Ssl    0:00 /usr/sbin/pdns_recursor --daemon=no --write-pid=no --disable-syslog --log-timestamp=no
[edit]
vyos@vyos# pgrep "pdns_recursor"
[edit]
vyos@vyos# pgrep pdns_recursor

vyos@vyos#

We need to use pgrep pdns

vyos@vyos# pgrep pdns

On 1.3-beta-202102210443 and 1.4-rolling-202102202002 all work properly and don't require any changes, mark as resolved.
