I was a couple of releases behind so I graded. Well, the upgrade didn't go so well. It removed the ICS dhcp server, didn't migrate ANYTHING and didn't start the KEA dhcp server. My whole network went down. I was more than a little miffed. I finally got in and setup KEA and started. Got my network back up. Today I started setting up my reservations. I rebooted the system. NONE of my reservations was preserved. WTH? I am sorry if I sound a bit angry, but I am. What is going on with KEA dhcp server? Can't it save reservation between reboots?

I think your upgrade procedure wasn't the most optimal one...
You should have migrated to something else BEFORE upgrading to a release that moves ISC DHCP Server to the plug-in and then start the upgrades.
All your old DHCP Reservations could have been exported to .CSV files and imported into either KEA DHCP Server or DNSmasqd DHCP & DNS Server.
And all reservations should just stay where they are after a reboot! :)
Reservations remain as you would expect.
Are your reservations outside your dynamic pools?
Did you miss an Apply somewhere along the line?
