RE: [ActiveDir] DHCP migration(OT)
Tom, You got me wondering myself to I VMed it. Here’s what I did. Built scopeA with a bunch of configs Exported the configs w/Netsh all Deleted scopeA Built scopeB with different configs Imported the config file from the old scope with the /all switch. Results: After refreshing the console a couple of times, the imported scope was added to the existing list. Note: NETSH will not export or import the current leases. They must be backed up and restored. In the NETSH/DHCP/Server prompt you can use import /? to get the syntax to import individual scopes, but based on this test it doesn’t seem necessary.

RE: [ActiveDir] DHCP migration(OT)
Title: Re: [ActiveDir] DHCP migration(OT) I agree with Daniel – I believe that netsh will do a fine job of migrating scopes and scope options but not leases. However, leases should not be too much of an issue so long as you instruct the DHCP server to perform conflict detection (assumes that ICMP is not blocked on your network). A set of commands something like the following perform the migration for you. From a command prompt on the existing DHCP server: Netsh dhcp server \\existing_dhcp_server export c:\dhcp_info.txt all From a command prompt on the new DHCP server: Netsh dhcp server \\existing_dhcp_server import \\existing_dhcp_server\c$\dhcp_info.txt all Now keep in mind that this will export everything and import everything. I would suggest ensuring that the new DHCP server is at the time of import not authorized in the AD or at least in a state that no clients will attempt to use it. After the import you can retrofit any of the imported data as necessary, such as altering or removing scopes or options. If you need to be more selective about what you export from the existing server, you will want to use the dump command instead and the massage the output so that you can use the add command on the new DHCP server.
