Question
I am attempting to install SharePoint 2019. I had a new VM where I installed the Prereqs and created the User Accounts. I need to assign the spAdmin account to the Administrator group however I cannot do anything as my Administrator Account is a Domain Controller.
What are the proper steps to solve the issue of Local Users and Group missing in Computer Management in the server?
Thanks in advance.
Solution
Installing SharePoint on a domain controller is not supported. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/support/server-install/certain-installation-scenarios-are-not-supported. Note the article references SharePoint 2013, but it is applicable to 2013+.
