• Install AD DS by using the same routine that you use on-premises (that is, you
can use the UI, an answer file, or Windows PowerShell). You need to provide
Administrator credentials to install a new forest. To specify the location for
the Active Directory database, logs, and SYSVOL, change the default
storage location from the operating system drive to the additional data disk
that you attached to the VM.
• After the DC installation finishes, connect to the VM again and log on to the
DC. Remember to specify domain credentials.

• Click Virtual Networks, double-click the virtual network you created and click
Configure.
• Under DNS servers, type the name and the DIP of the DC and click Save.
• Select the VM and click Restart to trigger the VM to configure DNS resolver
settings with the IP address of the new DNS server.
