1. On the Server Manager Console notifications flag and select Promote this server to a domain controller. 

2. On the Deployment Configuration page, select Add domain controller to an existing domain then Next.

4. On the DNS Options page, click Next.
 
5. On the Additional Options page, select the IFM options if required and replication then Next. 
6. On the Paths page, Next. (you can always change this one if you need to, in my case I just keep default values) 

7. On the Review Options page, review and click Next to proceed to the Prerequisites check and then installation.

The Server will be restarted and then it will be ready to go.
