The Best Practices Analyzer tool for Team Foundation Server has detected that the server that you scanned is configured as a domain controller.

You cannot install Team Foundation Server on a domain controller or a computer on which server products such as Exchange Server or Host Integration Server are already installed.

To resolve this issue, install Team Foundation Server on a computer that is not being used as a domain controller.
