Thank you very much Wlodek!  With that info I was able to create a lease file 
for dhcp4.  The only thing is it seems a collector runs at a certain interval 
that cleans up the memfile?  Looks like it blows out any loaded leases before 
they could expire from the old DHCP server.

Couple simple leases files I took out from our automated testing are attached. 
Please be aware that in user context Kea can store quite extensive info in json 
structure (also attached).

Hope that will help

Hello Rachael,

There probably isn't an example file anywhere in the documentation (I looked 
also) or if there is, I just didn't find it.  I would suggest setting up a test 
kea server with the memfile lease database persisting to a file.  Then use 
perfdhcp to generate traffic thus populating the file.  If you need specific 
options to appear in the lease file, it is possible to use perfdhcp to generate 
most of them (even if you have to create the hex yourself).

Thank you,

Darren Ankney

Hi, I would like to migrate a few thousand DHCP leases from a non-ISC DHCP 
server to a memfile backed Kea instance.  Looking through the docs, it seems it 
would be easier to populate the lease file in /var/lib/kea/kea-leases4.csv 
rather than using hooks.  However, in a fresh install the file only contains 
the header row.  Is there an example file populated with rows I could look at 
to properly format the data for import?  Didn’t see anything in the docs, but 
might have missed it.
