Go have a coffee, we ticked ‘reboot’ earlier so it will complete, then reboot the server, which will come back up as a domain controller. Unless you want to change the default AD install locations > Next. This used to be handy on remote sites that had awful bandwidth, as it saved you having to replicate a large Active Directly over a ‘pants’ connection > I’ve not had to do that in a long time > Next. If you have a backup of AD you can ‘Install From Media’. For example if your domain name is .uk > Then I do not have access to create a delegation in the. This is fine, You see this error because it’s trying to create a delegation for this DNS zone, and there isn’t a Windows server above you in the DNS hierarchy.

Procedure: Deploy a 2019 Domain Controller Remember if your ‘retiring’ domain controller is also a DNS/DHCP server you will also need to address that, and make sure you don’t have a service or device that queries the old domain controller directly (Radius Devices, Firewalls, RSA Appliances, Proxy Filters, Security door software, etc). For Server 2016 Forest and Domain Functional levels need to be at ‘ Windows Server 2003‘.(The documentation says 2008 R2, but Server 2008 also works flawlessly). For Server 2019 Forest and Domain Functional levels need to be at ‘ Windows Server 2008‘.Obviously the server needs to be a domain member first!
Now all this happens in the background when adding a 2019 domain controller and the wizard is doing the heavy lifting for you. Once upon a time, adding a domain controller that was running a newer version of the Windows Server family involved opening command line and schema prepping, and GP prepping etc.
