DHCP Migration Fail (2008 R2 > 2012 Core)

[Silent Knight]

Hi,

I have searched everywhere and I haven't been able to find an answer to this one yet. I am in the process of trying to migrate DHCP scopes from a Windows 2008 R2 host to a Windows 2012 Core host.

I'm using PS to migrate and I've run the below to backup and restore the scopes:

Export-DhcpServer –ComputerName %sourceserverfqdn% -Leases -File C:\DHCP\dhcpexport.xml -verbose
Import-DhcpServer –ComputerName %destinationserverfqdn% -Leases –File C:\DHCP\dhcpexport.xml -BackupPath C:\DHCP\Backup\ -Verbose

Both of these commands are run on the same server. After the initial backup I stopped the DHCP service on the source server and authorized the new DHCP server. Then I ran the import.

These are the errors that I get for every scope it is trying to import:

Can anyone give me some pointers on what is going on here? I have tried just backing up the DHCP config and then restoring using the DHCP snap-in but that errors out as well.
