Your network contains an Active Directory forest named contoso.com. The forest contains a
single domain. The domain contains two domain controllers named DC1 and DC2 that run
Windows Server 2012 R2.
The domain contains a user named User1 and a global security group named Group1.
You need to add a new domain controller to the domain.
You install Windows Server 2012 R2 on a new server named DC3.
Which cmdlet should you run next?
A.
Add-AdPrincipalGroupMembership
B.
Install-AddsDomainController
C.
Install WindowsFeature
D.
Install AddsDomain
E.
Rename-AdObject
F.
Set-AdAccountControl
G.
Set-AdGroup
H.
Set-User
Answer should be B.
Install-AddsDomainController
The Install-ADDSDomainController cmdlet installs a domain controller in Active Directory.

Its C, but its “Install-WindowsFeature”, with a dash (i assume this is an OCR error)
You have to install the ADDS role first.
• To create a new Domain Controller from a fresh installed windows server:
First: Install ADDS: Install-windowsfeature AD-domain-services
Second: Promote it to DC: Install-ADDSDomainController
C. Install-WindowsFeature

Answer is C. Final goal is to “add a new domain controller to the domain”
It stated that “install Windows Server 2012 R2 on a new server named DC3” which mean that it’s on Server Core mode which doesn’t had AD DS role at all.
Therefore, you need to install AD DS role first using Install-WindowsFeature before you can use “Install-AddsDomainController” to promote to DC w/in existing domain. Install-ADDSDomain, Install-ADDSDomainController, Install-ADDSForest are PowerShell cmdlets are installed by default when u add AD DS role w/ its role-management tools on a server regardless of whether server has been promoted to DC.
That is a very good tip particularly to those fresh to the blogosphere. Simple but very precise information… Many thanks for sharing this one. A must read post!|
