DHCP Server running without working

We have installed a new Server 2022 Standard as a DC server. After migrating the FSMO roles, everything is functioning properly. However, the following error occurs: after some restarts, the DHCP server stops working. The service is running, but the DHCP server is not assigning leases. After restarting the service, it works again. There are no error messages in the DHCP server log. We have reinstalled and reconfigured the DHCP server, but the issue persists. Currently, it is working with auto-login. Has anyone encountered this problem before?

    Hello Dominik Almus

    If the DHCP service works after restarting but then stops assigning leases again, there might be an issue with the DHCP service itself or its dependencies.

    Check the "Dependencies" tab in DHCP Server service, does it include all necessary services and drives? does it contain AD DS?

    DHCP relies on the DC for name resolution (DNS) and sometimes for authentication, DC service should start before the DHCP service.

    Thanks,
