Hi,
I am in the process of installing our new Primary Server (W2003SP1) to
initially run alongside our existing machine, and eventually take the
majority of the load.
I have setup DHCP and have both servers showing on the MMC. I
currently only have reservations on the old server, which I would
like on the new server. Do I have to manually re-enter the
reservations or can I transfer them across??
Also, in order to avoid IP conflicy, I am going to unauthorize the old
server and force clients to use the new server. In case of system
failure, all I would need to do is authorize the old server and
hopefully this would supply IP's to the clients - does this make
sense to anyone other than me ??!!
You can keep both servers running then make exclusions for the addresses the
other DHCP server hands out. This does not affect reservations, make the
same reservations on both DHCP servers, the reservations will override the
exclusions. So, even if the reservations are within the excluded range on
one of the DHCP servers, it will still be assigned.
Use Netsh for exporting and importing the DHCP data base from one to the
other. Then, created your exclusions. There is no need changing the DHCP
authorizations, leave them both authorized in AD.
