Splitting a DHCP scope

I was told by my network provider to split my dhcp scope.

"We split the switch stack, so you will need to split the scope.  That’s likely the reason you can’t pull IPs for the PCs on switch stack 2 in IDF2."

Can someone explain to me what this means? The only time I split a scope before was when I had 2 dhcp servers. I only have 1. Would he mean that I need to create 2 dhcp scopes to split up the subnet?

Im not sure and I cant get ahold of him. We need to get these machines online since they wont pull a ip address from our dhcp server.

He said we need to split the dhcp scope. He gave us a subnet of x.x.52.0 and we couldnt pull a address, so he states we need to split the scope. Have you ever split a subnet scope before? Such as 52.128 goes to one scope and 52.x goes to another?
