4. Overview of Active Directory Domain Services, Implementing Active Directory

5. Chapter Objectives
Identify Active Directory functions and Benefits.
Identify the major components that make up an Active Directory structure.
Identify how DNS relates to Active Directory.
Identify Forest and Domain Functional Levels.

6. Directory Service
A network service that identifies all resources on a network and makes those resources accessible to users and applications.
Stores information about the network resources and services, such as user data, printer, servers, databases, groups, computers, and security policies.

7. Active Directory Used in: Windows 2000 Windows Server 2003
New features are constantly added.

8. Windows Server 2008 provides two directory services:
Active Directory
Windows Server 2008 provides two directory services:
Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS)

9. Domain Controller (DC)
Server that stores the Active Directory database and authenticates users with the network during logon.
Active Directory is a multimaster database.
Information is automatically replicated between multiple domain controllers.

10. Active Directory Functions and Benefits
Centralized resource and security administration.
Single logon for access to global resources.
Fault tolerance and redundancy.
Simplified resource location.

11. Active Directory Components
Forests
Domain trees
Domains
Forest, domain trees and domains represent a logical representation.
OUs can also be used to organize resources within a domain.
Domain Controllers and sites are physical components.

12. Functional Levels
Allows interoperability with prior versions of Microsoft Windows.
Higher levels of functional level will not allow older versions of Windows to function but will add additional functionality or features.
Raising functional level is a one-way process.

13. Implementing Active Directory
Lesson 2

14. Located in Administrative Tools.
Server Manager
Located in Administrative Tools.
Can also be accessed by right-clicking My Computer and selecting Manage.
Allows you to:
Add roles such as DNS server or Active Directory Domain Services role.
Perform system diagnostics.
Configure system services.
Drill down into specific administrative tools.
Break from the Power and show the Server Manager and what it has to offer. Also show how to manage roles within Server Manager.
You can also mention that Server Manager is new to Windows Server 2008.

15. Server Manager

16. Installing Active Directory
To install Active Directory, you will need to first add the Active Directory Domain Services role using Server Manager.
Different from earlier versions of Windows, you need to first add the role before you can run dcpromo to install Active Directory.

17. Installing Active Directory

18. Installing Active Directory
The Active Directory Installation Wizard, dcpromo, will guide you through any of the following installation scenarios:
Adding a domain controller to an existing environment.
Creating an entirely new forest structure.
Adding a child domain to an existing domain.
Adding a new domain tree to an existing forest.
Demoting domain controllers and eventually removing a domain or forest.
Same as earlier versions, dcpromo installs Active Directory.
You should consider using a virtual server to show how to install Active Directory

19. Post-Installation Tasks
Upon completion of the Active Directory installation, you should verify a number of items:
Application directory partition creation.
Aging and scavenging for zones.
Forward lookup zones and SRV records.
Reverse lookup zones.

20. DNS Records
Make sure Forward Lookup zone is created.
Make sure Host (A) record is created for your server.
Make sure DNS domains are created.

21. Raising the Forest Functional Level
Open Active Directory Domains and Trusts from the Administrative Tools folder.
Right-click the Active Directory Domains and Trusts icon in the console tree and select Raise Forest Functional Level.

22. Removing Active Directory
Click the Start menu, key dcpromo and then press Enter.
