createADLab

This is a powershell script to Configure Active Directory Lab. This script doesn't deploy the machine or install the operating system. You can prepare your operating system and just clone and run this script with all the options configured in the adConfig.json file in the same directory as this script. This script currently supports upto 3 Domain Controllers. Two Domain Controllers for the parent domain and a third domain controller for the Child Domain. You can choose to create single, two or three Domain Controllers. Just run the script on each server that you would like to configure as a DC. Additionally it also creates an enterprise admin user as configured in the json file.
