levd <levd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> stated, which I commented on below:
Hello,

Al clients have a new ip address from the new DHCP server.
The old DHCP server is not running anymore.
Vlans are configured correctly.....
ALso the clients are working correctly but i never seen this icon
with a pencil before....and i wonder why the dynamic dns update is
pending...

Thx,
LEVD

Did you confirm this (as Jorge asked as well)? When you run an ipconfig /all
on the client, I assume it shows the new DHCP?
Did you unauthorize the old one?

Also, the only time I've seen a pencil is in third party DHCP servers.
HOwever, if it is having difficulty updating into DNS, then it may be a red
flag that the incorrect DNS servers are being referenced. This means in an
AD environment, only the internal DNS servers are to be used. If it is
pointing to an ISP's DNS or some other DNS (or even the Linkysys router)
that is not accepting updates or doesn't host the zone, then we have a
mis-configuration.

Can you provide an unedited ipconfig /all of a machine in question and the
DC please (assuming this is your DHCP server). - Thanks!
