Is the DHCP server also in the same VLAN? If yes, then you shouldn't need to do anything to get an IP via DHCP.
If no, then is the switch you are creating also functioning as the inter-vlan router? The inter-vlan routers in the network should enable bootprelay or IP helpers to forward the DHCP broadcasts to the DHCP server. If the switch is just a flat L2 switch, then nothing needs to be done.
