Description

**One VM (WS2016) configured as Domain Controller for a new forest with a single domain**
It provisions single DC. Could be a single point of failure. Shouldn’t we have a backup DC created in availability group to ensure HA?
Reference : https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates/tree/master/active-directory-new-domain-ha-2-dc

**One VM (WS2016) configured as File Share Witness for the cluster.**
This could be point of failure again. Instead we could use *cloud witness* (which is in theory would be HA)?

Research direction

Read the referenced active-directory-new-domain-ha-2-dc template first, then locate the existing WS2016 domain-controller and file-share-witness definitions in this repository. Done means deploying a highly available second DC and replacing the witness VM with cloud witness, with the resulting cluster and forest configuration validated.
