Odd DHCP message on startup

When the DHCP Server starts, it logs an event id 1048 in the system log,
claiming that is has started, and is authorized to service clients. It then
claims that it detected the server was recently upgraded, and that no
directory service enterprise exists. It then claims that the server should
be authorized, which it is. Both DC's in the domain list the DHCP server as
authorized in AD. DHCP functions do not seem affected otherwise. Is this
message safe to ignore, or is there something else that needs to be done.

Thanks
 
What's the event ID?

How many DCs?

Is it possible that this info. is on one DC and not another, i.e.
replication issues?

Authorisation info. is stored in CN=NetServices, CN=Services,
CN=Configuration, DC=domain-name,DC=com as a dHCPClass object with the name
of the server; and the DhcpRoot object -which lists all authorised servers
(and scopes) under the dhcpServers attribute.

The event ID is 1048.

There are two DC's in the domain in question. The one hosting the DHCP
service is logging the message.
 
One other thing of note: The event is only generated when the DHCP service
starts. There are no further messages after that, except for those generated
when the system cleans up old leases, etc. DHCP is functioning, and using
NETSH DHCP SHOW SERVER responds that the server is active for the domain.
