Do not move on to Task 2 until the build share is fully populated and you are happy with the

automation options in the automate.ini file.

Task 2 – Build DC, Windows Infrastructure

On both the VC and DC VMs make sure the CDROM drive is connected to a Windows

Server 2008 R2 install ISO, connected at power on is recommended. AutoLab build v1.1 and

later will work with any 2008 R2 ISO, previous versions were locked to specific service pack

levels. Also make sure that the right floppy image is connected, on Workstation and Fusion

this is part of the package that you downloaded. On ESXi you may have to re-attach the

floppies. Backup copies of the boot floppy images can be found on the build share in

\Automate\BootFloppies.

Power on the DC VM to start the unattended install. The first time you boot this VM it has a

blank hard disk, so it will boot from the Windows installer CD and begin the build process.

On subsequent reboots the installer will pass boot over to the hard disk unless you press a

key. Pressing a key at this prompt will completely rebuild the VM with no confirmation.

The VM will boot from the Windows Server 2008 R2 CDROM and use “autounattend.xml”

file on the floppy disk image to automate the Windows install. This will take some time, go

talk to your family for a while, or read some documentation to pass the time. On my laptop

this takes around an hour. No input will be required from you through this process and you

cannot start the other installs until it is complete.
