We are running Microsoft DHCP and DNS and we recently discovered that we are
having some ongoing issue with DHCP database integrity issues. What we
discovered is that our statistical counts within a scope (i.e. number of
addresses available for lease) was different when compared to the actual
list of current IP addresses in use as shown in the DHCP applet. When we
run a DHCP verification on the scope, we can see addresses in the verify
applet that accounts for all the missing address. When we reconcile the
scope, the missing addresses are added to the list of leased addresses and
are assigned a lease expiration.
My question deals with the following:
Does anyone know what causes the the inconsistency to occur and what it
takes to fix the problem? We are running verifies through the NETSH command
to identify the problems but we keep having to fix the problem and we within
a few days we are showing more inconsistencies.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
