That will prevent the DHCP client service registering the resords in DNS but as these servers are DC's you also need to prevent Netlogon from registering the records so that tick box wouldn't be enough. If any of the DC's are DNS servers there are even more hoops to jump through to completely disable the registration.

Yeah - uncheck the checkboxes that say "Register this connection in DNS" on
the TCP/IP properties of the backup NIC's .
