Write a script to go to each DHCP server and copy the DHCP backup folder to a central location. That backup is generated daily and in the event you lose a DHCP server you could put DHCP on another server and restore the backup files. If you use a system with a different IP you will have to update the IP Helper on the switches that have the VLAN the server serves.

I've seen the appliances etc when Goggling but nothing app oriented and inexpensive. Thanks in advance for any help.
