Hi,

I need to move my DHCP Server ( 2003
) to another machine ( 2003 ).  I did the configuration export by
giving the netsh dhcp server export command and am able to import the DHCP
configuration on the Target Server.  The concern is that Is this process
completes the whole move. What about the DHCP Database ? how to move it
or is there any tested process to  move the configuration and db to
another server.?  

Thanks in Advance.

Thanks for the response.

I have gone through some of the microsoft
documents. The tool dhcpexim works for 2000 whereas my source and target
servers are 2003. For 2003 the procedure mentioned in the link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325473
says to use netsh import and export commands. They also have mentioned
that its moves both the database as well as configuration.

When i used this command, as per my understanding
it perfectly moves the configuration of the DHCP on the target server and
i am able to see all the scopes and the Addresses leases. However my dhcp.mdb
database size on the target server remains default 1032 kb . Where as the
the db size on the source server is bigger then this.

May i know why is this happening? Or is there
any other process also to be followed ?

Thanks..

Have you compressed dhcp.mdb file using the
jetpack.exe utility somewhere along the line? I am not sure if the backup does
this as part of it's process. If it does, it may explain why the target file
size is smaller than the source.

Have you tested to ensure the restored dhcp
server is working correctly? otherwise you could be worrying over
nothing

What happens when you look at the DHCP tool on the Target
server - are Address Leases empty?  Are there any errors?  As you say,
the MS article at http://support.microsoft.com/?id=325473 clearly
says that the "netsh dhcp server export C:\dhcp.txt all" command should export
the database too.

ActiveDir@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [ActiveDir] moving DHCP Server
to another machine Hi, I need to move my DHCP Server ( 2003 ) to another machine ( 2003
).  I did the configuration export by giving the netsh dhcp server export
command and am able to import the DHCP configuration on the Target Server.
 The concern is that Is this process completes the whole move. What about
the DHCP Database ? how to move it or is there any tested process to  move
the configuration and db to another server.?
