Hi, I have a win 2019 server and when I log in to the virtual machine with the domain and connected to the global admin, I don't have admin privilege on the server.

    Hi there,

    To manage a Windows device, you need to be a member of the local administrator's group. As part of the Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) join process, Azure AD updates the membership of this group on a device.

    I'd check that your domain account is a member of the local administrator's group.
