Migrate DHCP to Server 2008 R2 PowerShell command
02-Apr-09

I have been playing with the Windows Server 2008 R2 migration cmdlets in
PowerShell and I am getting an error when trying to import DHCP configuration
data.
I stopped the DHCP Server serivec and then ran this command on my source
server:
Export-SmigServerSetting ???featureID DHCP ???User All ???Group ???path
\\SEA-DC-02\DHCPData ???Verbose

I stopped the DHCP Server service and then run this command on my
destination server (note: I have tried putting the physicaladdress values in
quotes and still recieve an error):
Import-SmigServerSetting -featureid DHCP ???User All ???Group
???SourcePhysicalAddress 00-15-5D-01-66-08 ???DestinationPhysicalAddress
00-15-5D-01-66-03 ???Force -path \\SEA-DC-02\DHCPData ???Verbose

I get this error message:

Import-SmigServerSetting : Cannot bind parameter 'Feature'. Cannot convert
value "-DestinationPhysicalAddress" to type
"Microsoft.Windows.ServerManager.Migration.Commands.Feature". Error: "Invalid
cast from 'System.String' to
'Microsoft.Windows.ServerManager.Migration.Commands.Feature'."
At line:1 char:25
+ Import-smigserversetting <<<< -featureID DHCP -User All -Group -IPConfig
All -SourcePhysicalAddress "00-15-5D-01-66-08" -DestinationPhysicalAddress
"00-15-5D-01-66-03" -Force -Path \\SEA-DC-02\DHCPData -Verbose
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:)
[Import-SmigServerSetting], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId :
CannotConvertArgumentNoMessage,Microsoft.Windows.ServerManager.Migration.Commands.Import SvrMigSettingCommand

I was able to successfully migrate IP configuration from the same source
server to this destination server so I know the basic process works.
any ideas?

Instead of -DestinationPhysicalAddress it should be -TargetPhysicalAddress.
