DHCP- cannot find logfiles to restore

We are running 7.2.2.
We needed a restore of DHCP logs, however in the Networker User GUI they could not be found. These are just .txt files.
I ran a backup of only these files from the client server. The backup indicated it completed. Checked for files in the Restore GUI and still not there. I found a note in the Admin Guide to set up the savesets as follows:
%SystemRoot%\System32\dhcp
did that and got no such file or directory. I set up a direct path using saveset:
C:\windows\system32\dhcp
backup completed. but i still do not see the logs

I cannot find any other doc related to this process

I guess you are trying to backup DHCP database after export as described in KB325473, right? When you tried backup of those, did you see how much have been backed up? Do you see those exports using nsrinfo? And finally, if you export those so some other directory (for example C:\WINDOWS\dhcp_backup) does it work then?

Hi Debra,

DHPC logs location can be changed, can you verify if in your server there are current logs in this folder?

These logs should be backed up like any other file, but be sure that they're stored in that folder. Also, you may want to try nsrinfo to verify if you can find the logs you want.
