Configuring Windows roles and features

Start PowerShell as an administrator, and then run the following list of commands.
1. To add roles and features to the server, run the following commands:
```
Install-WindowsFeature Failover-Clustering -IncludeManagementTools
                                          Install-WindowsFeature RSAT-Clustering –IncludeAllSubFeature
                                          Install-WindowsFeature RSAT-ADDS-Tools
                                       
```
2. To enable the default MPIO settings, run the following commands:
```
Install-WindowsFeature Multipath-IO –IncludeManagementTools
                                          Enable-MSDSMAutomaticClaim -BusType SAS
                                       
```
  For more information about advanced MPIO settings, see the Dell Storage with Microsoft Storage Spaces Best Practices Guide available at Dell.com/dsmsmanuals .
3. To restart the server, run the following commands:
```
Restart-computer –confirm:$false 
```
After the computer restarts, log in by using the domain account with administrative privileges. If you are unable to install these features prevents the storage solution from functioning properly. If you do not enable automatic updates on the server, appropriate messages are displayed.
