After completing post-installation tasks on Windows Server 2019, one of the first steps that will be needed is
===============================================================================
To either promote your windows server as a domain controller or to add the server as a
member server to an existing Active Directory Domain.
==================================================================
I will show you how to join Windows Server 2019 to an existing Windows Server 2019 Active Directory
Domain. There are few things which you need to take care before you start joining the windows server 2019 to
an existing AD Domain.
Requirements when Joining a Windows Server 2019 to the existing Domain:
1. Make sure that server is configured with static IP

2. Make sure that server is configured with primary DNS servers IP address pointing to the domain
controller
3. Make sure server is able to resolve a domain name to IP address
4. Check network connectivity between server and domain controller
5. A user account and password on the domain with sufficient privilege to join a server to the domain.

For this tutorial, I have two virtual machines in Oracle VM VirtualBox as below:
To build new server and rename WS2K19-SRV01 to that server and RDP is also enabled.
To open Ethernet adapter to assign static IP address and DNS server IP address of DC controller.
First thing we need to check ping connectivity from WS2k19-srv01 to WS2k19-Dc01.

Ping domain controller of FQDN --- WS2k19-Dc01.mylab.local from WS2k19-srv01
Ping domain as well as mylab.local from WS2k19-srv01
To check nslookup
1. On WS2K19-SRV01, open server manager console. On the left side click on the local server. Now Click on
a workgroup option. That will open the system properties dialog box.
2. On system properties dialog box, Click on “Change” button.
sysdm.cpl To open system Properties

3. On Computer Name/Domain Change console, Under member of: select domain. Type name of your
domain. (In our case it will be mylab.local). Once you ready, click on OK button.
4. It will ask to supply user name and password (WS2K19-DC01) to join this server to the mylab.local
domain.
In Active Directory, even standard user account has the privilege to join up to 10 computers to the
domain. Here I am using domain admin’s credential to join this server to the domain. Click on
the OK button.
5. Once your server successfully joins to the domain, you will receive the message “Welcome to the
mylab.local domain”. Click on OK button.
6. It will ask to save your work before restarting the server. Click on OK button.
7. Close all open console and click on “Restart Now” button to restart the server.
8. After the restart, we are going to login to the member server with the credential of the domain
administrator.
9. Once you login to the server, open server manager console. Click on “local server“. Now you can see our
windows server 2019 is part of mylab.local domain.
From Domain Controller
On ws2k19-dc01, Open “Active Directory Users and Computers” console from server manager console.
Expand mylab.local domain, expand and click on “Computers” container.

Here you can see the computer account of the member server “ws2k19-srv01“.
Now, you have successfully joined the windows server 2019 to the existing windows server 2019 active
directory domain.
That’s it for this post. I hope this will be helpful.
Thanks.
