4. Promote it to a Domain Controller:

Open Server Manager > Add Roles and Features

Select Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)

Promote to Domain Controller

Create a new domain: corp.local

💻 Part 3: Configure Cluster Node VMs


1. Install Windows Server on Node1 and Node2

2. Join both to the domain ( corp.local )

Set static IPs (e.g., Node1: 192.168.10.11 , Node2: 192.168.10.12 )

Right-click This PC > Properties > Domain Join

3. Rename the computers to Node1 and Node2 respectively

4. Restart both nodes after domain join
