Raise a 2k19 domain controller in core server mode using an answer file.

Question

Good Morning!

How can I raise a 2k19 domain controller in core server mode using an answer file? Is there any material that teaches step by step? It will not be a RODC.

Thanks.

Hi,

I didn't find any newer official documentation, but there is KB article for how to use unattended mode for installing ADDS on a server:

How to use unattended mode to install and remove Active Directory Domain Services on Windows Server 2008-based domain controllers
https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/947034/how-to-use-unattended-mode-to-install-and-remove-active-directory-doma

I don't think it matters whether the server is using Full Experience (GUI) or Server Core, the guide above should get you started at least.

Best regards,
