Hi all,
I am going to migrate Windows 2003 R2 32 bit DHCPservers to Windows 2008 R2 servers.
From this link,
For detailed steps, please refer to the following article and same thread.
Migration of DHCP Server from Windows Server 2003 to Windows server 2008
We need to export and import registry key and do you know why? where is it located?
I am going to use netsh dhcp server export/import
since it could take one week to switch, do I need to switch to Windows 2008 R2 servers immediately after exporting dhcp db?
Thank you!
Thank you.

Hello,
That is in case where you have performed custom changes on registry keys.
See this document for its location: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/173396
It is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DhcpServer\Configuration
You can use dhcmpmig like mentioned in the article but this is not supported by Microsoft. For that, I would recommend testing that in a test environment before using it in your production one.

In addition to Mr X suggestion, you can check this wiki article.
Export the DHCP reservations, from the Old server which is to be migrated using netsh:
netsh dhcp server [ip address] scope [scope address] dump>c:\temp\dhcpscope.txt
Example:
netsh dhcp server 192.168.100.10 scope 192.168.100.0 dump>c:\DHCPDump\DHCP.txt
Edit the exported file in notepad 'DHCPReserv.txt', Simply do a Find and Replace for the Windows Servers 2003 DHCP server IP you ran the export on and change to the Windows Server 2008 DHCP server IP you are importing to.
On the Windows Server 2008 DHCP server, make sure you create the new scope first, and ten just simply run the following command:
netsh exec c:\DHCPDump\DHCP.txt
Thanks

Thanks for our help.
Can we use netsh to export and import dhcp db instead of migration tool?
I just checked our Windows 2003 DHCP servers and no value in these keys. So,
I do not worry about it. right?
Thank you.

Yes.
Since there is no custom updates, you can proceed with no problems.

Hi Mr X,
>since it could take one week to switch, do I need to switch to Windows 2008 R2 servers immediately after exporting dhcp db and importing to
Windows 2008 R2 DHCP server? Can I wait for one week to switch to Windows 2008 R2 servers?
Thank you.

Hi Aiden,
Thank you for your help and advice.
When I export the windows 2003 DHCP DB, do I need to stop the DHCP service before exporting?
Thank you.

No need to stop the DHCP service.
Thanks
