Public/New-DomainController.ps1

<#
    .SYNOPSIS
        This function creates a new Primary Domain Controller on the specified Windows 2012 R2 or Windows 2016 Server.

        This function MUST be used remotely (i.e. run it from a Workstation that can use PS Remoting to access the target
        Windows Server that will become the new Domain Controller).

    .DESCRIPTION
        See .SYNOPSIS

    .NOTES

    .PARAMETER DesiredHostName
        This parameter is MANDATORY.

        This parameter takes a string that represents the HostName that you would like the target Windows 2016 Server to have.

    .PARAMETER NewDomainName
        This parameter is MANDATORY.

        This parameter takes a string that represents the name of the new domain you would like to create.
        Example: alpha.lab

    .PARAMETER NewDomainAdminCredentials
        This parameter is MANDATORY.

        This parameter takes a PSCredential. A new Domain Account will be created using these credentials. This account will be
        added to the following Security Groups on the New Domain:
            - Domain Admins
            - Domain Users
            - Enterprise Admins
            - Group Policy Creator Owners
            - Schema Admins

    .PARAMETER LocalAdministratorAccountCredentials
        This parameter is MANDATORY.

        This parameter takes a PSCredential.

        The credential provided to this parameter will be applied to the Local Built-In Administrator Account on the
        target Windows Server. In other words, the pscredential provided to this parameter does NOT need to match
        the current UserName/Password of the Local Administrator Account on the target Windows Server, because the
        pscredential provided to this parameter will overwrite whatever the existing credentials are.

    .PARAMETER PSRemotingLocalAdminCredentials
        This parameter is MANDATORY.

        This parameter takes a PSCredential.

        The credential provided to this parameter should correspond to a User Account that has permission to
        remote into the target Windows Server. If you're using a Vagrant Box (which is what will be deployed
        if you use the -CreateNewVMs switch), then the value for this parameter should be created via:

            $VagrantVMPassword = ConvertTo-SecureString 'vagrant' -AsPlainText -Force
            $VagrantVMAdminCreds = [pscredential]::new("vagrant",$VagrantVMPassword)

    .PARAMETER ServerIP
        This parameter is OPTIONAL, however, if you do NOT use the -CreateNewVMs parameter, this parameter becomes MANDATORY.

        This parameter takes a string that represents an IPv4 Address of the Windows Server that will become the new Primary
        Domain Controller.

    .PARAMETER RemoteDSCDirectory
        This parameter is OPTIONAL, however, the value defaults to "C:\DSCConfigs".

        This parameter takes a string that represents the full path to a directory on -ServerIP that will contain the DSC
        configuration files needed to create the new Primary Domain Controller.

    .PARAMETER DSCResultsDownloadDirectory
        This parameter is OPTIONAL, however, the value defaults to "$HOME\Downloads\DSCConfigResultsFor$DesiredHostName".

        This parameter takes a string that represents the full path to a directory on the localhost that will contain any
        DSC config output files generated by creating the new Primary Domain Controller. This makes it easy to review what
        DSC did on the remote host.

    .EXAMPLE
        # Open an elevated PowerShell Session, import the module, and -

        PS C:\Users\zeroadmin> $VagrantVMPassword = ConvertTo-SecureString 'vagrant' -AsPlainText -Force
        PS C:\Users\zeroadmin> $VagrantVMAdminCreds = [pscredential]::new("vagrant",$VagrantVMPassword)
        PS C:\Users\zeroadmin> $DomainAdminCreds = [pscredential]::new("alpha\alphaadmin",$(Read-Host 'Enter Passsword' -AsSecureString))
        Enter Passsword: ************
        PS C:\Users\zeroadmin> $LocalAdminAccountCreds = [pscredential]::new("Administrator",$(Read-Host 'Enter Passsword' -AsSecureString))
        Enter Passsword: ****************
        PS C:\Users\zeroadmin> $NewDomainControllerSplatParams = @{
        >> DesiredHostName = "AlphaDC01"
        >> NewDomainName = "alpha.lab"
        >> NewDomainAdminCredentials = $DomainAdminCreds
        >> ServerIP = "192.168.2.112"
        >> PSRemotingLocalAdminCredentials = $VagrantVMAdminCreds
        >> LocalAdministratorAccountCredentials = $LocalAdminAccountCreds
        >> }
        PS C:\Users\zeroadmin> $NewDomainControllerResults = New-DomainController @NewDomainControllerSplatParams
