In order to maintain a secure system, I recommend selecting the Download And Install Optional Microsoft Updates During Installation; once you do, and after you click the Next button, the installation wizard looks for and downloads necessary updates from Microsoft. This step can take a few minutes. Once the installation wizard is updated, the system restarts and the installation continues. Regardless of your selection on the Microsoft Update screen, the installer requires you to download critical updates that might affect the installation wizard.
If you're installing the management server for the first time, there is a high likelihood that you have yet to create your Active Directory domain. On the next page of the wizard, you're asked if you still need to create a new forest and domain or if you plan to join this server to an existing domain. If you're wondering if all of the work you went through during the planning phase was for naught, you're about to find out. When you get to the next page of the wizard, you'll see the Load Planning Data button.
At this point, you need to make available whatever media on which you stored the planning data from the first phase of the installation. In my lab, I added a second virtual CD-ROM drive to my virtual machine and pointed that drive to the location where my planning data was stored. You can use a disc or a USB key to store the planning data, or you can store the information at a network location. The goal is to point the wizard at the planning file that you created in the first phase.
You've already decided that you need to create a new domain, so now you need to name it and define the password that will be used for the domain administrator's account. After you provide the requested information and click the Next button, the wizard scans the network to make sure that the domain name is not already in use. The names you use for your EBSs are important and are defined on the next page of the installation wizard. I named my management server ebs-mgmt, my security server ebs-sec, and my messaging server ebs-mail.
After you click the Next button, the wizard verifies your server names. IP addresses make network communication possible. The installation wizard knows what you want -- it even presents a list of internal network IP addresses for your consideration.
You can choose to accept this list of IP addresses which I opted to do or make changes. Provide details for a new DHCP scope. File storage continues to be one of the most basic uses for servers; your new EBS needs a place to store its files, and it's up to you to define a volume to use for this purpose.
If you have only a single volume in your server, you won't have the option to choose any volume other than the system volume. The Microsoft Download Manager solves these potential problems. It gives you the ability to download multiple files at one time and download large files quickly and reliably. It also allows you to suspend active downloads and resume downloads that have failed. Microsoft Download Manager is free and available for download now.
