Lab Definition

This is an updated and revised configuration of the now retired POC-Multirole. If you were instructed to use that configuration, this one should work for you. This configuration no longer includes the deprecated NanoServer image.

This lab builds the following:

Computername : DC2
Description  : Windows Server 2016 Standard 64bit English Evaluation

MemoryGB     : 2

Computername : Server1

To get started

To run the full lab setup, which includes Setup-Lab, Run-Lab, Enable-Internet, and Validate-Lab:
PS> Unattend-Lab

To run the commands individually to setup the lab environment:

Run the following for initial setup:
PS> Setup-Lab

To start the Lab, and apply configurations the first time:
PS> Run-Lab

To enable Internet access for the VMs, run:
PS> Enable-Internet

To validate when configurations have converged:
PS> Validate-Lab

Once validation is complete you should connect to the VM, logon as the non-administrator account and let Windows 10 finish setting up. Then restart the computer applying any pending updates. After this you can, and should, snapshot the VM.

To Stop and snapshot the lab

To stop the lab VM's:
PS> Shutdown-lab

To checkpoint the VM's:
PS> Snapshot-Lab

To quickly rebuild the labs from the checkpoint, run:
PS> Refresh-Lab

To Patch a lab

If you want to make sure the virtual machines have the latest updates from Microsoft, you can run this command:

PS> Update-Lab

Because this may take some time to run, you can also run it as a background job.

PS> Update-Lab -asjob

To remove a lab

To destroy the lab to build again:
PS> Wipe-Lab

You will be prompted for each virtual machine. Or you can force the removal and suppress the prompts:

PS> Wipe-Lab -force
