Menus Index |  |  | # Export Data The Export Data wizard helps you transfer DHCP networks, IP addresses, macros, and options from one Solaris DHCP server to another. The wizard exports configuration data from this Solaris DHCP server so that it can then be imported onto another Solaris DHCP server. This effectively moves support of a set of DHCP clients from one server to another. After you fill in the requested information in each dialog, click the right-arrow button at the bottom of the window to advance to the next dialog. The Export Data wizard asks you for the following information.
Select networks | This dialog lists in the Do Not Export column all the networks configured for DHCP service . Any network that you transfer to the Export column will be exported from this server. The IP addresses and their associated bindings will be placed in the export file so that they can be imported to another server. To transfer a network to the Export column, select it and click the right-arrow button between the columns. You can also choose to leave all the networks in the Do Not Export column. This allows you to proceed to selecting macros and options to export without exporting any networks.
Select macros | The Do Not Export column displays all macros defined for this DHCP server. To export a macro, select it and click the right-arrow button between the columns to transfer the macro to the Export column.
Select options | The Do Not Export column displays all options defined for this DHCP server. To export an option, select it and click the right-arrow button between the columns to transfer the option to the Export column.
Export file | The export file is the file to which the data you selected to export will be copied and compressed. You must provide a full path name to the file. The file should be placed in a shared directory that is accessible to the DHCP server that will be importing the data.
Delete exported data | If you want the exported data to be deleted from the DHCP server after the export is complete, select this option. This is recommended, especially if you are exporting networks to avoid conflicting ownership of the IP addresses. ???
