Basic environment installation and configuration

In this chapter, we start to extend our actual simulated on-premises infrastructure with the additional servers we need in order to demonstrate and configure different capabilities. In the following diagram, we introduce the complete environment we'll have configured after working through all the labs in the book:

Lab environment overview

In this chapter, we will add YD1APP01 and YD1URA01 to our environment. YourDomain1 (YD1) is used to identify the machine in the correct domain. In our case, we used INODEMOAPP01 as an example. You need to provision the machines with the previous values.

 

You already deployed the YDADS01 domain controllerinChapter 2, Understanding Identity Synchronization. For all future virtual servers, use the sameAzure subscription, the same resource group, and the same virtual network. Join the virtual machines to your existing Active Directory. For the domain controller installation, we usedinovitlabs.ch as an example. In...
