Here’s a clean, step-by-step guide for managing your Hyper-V environment using Windows Admin Center (WAC) — including installing VMs, managing/connecting to them, and joining those VMs to a domain directly through WAC.

✅ 1) Install Virtual Machines via Hyper-V in Windows Admin Center
Prerequisites

Windows Admin Center installed and connected to your Hyper-V host.

You are logged in with an account that has Hyper-V admin permissions.

ISO media stored locally on the host or a reachable network share.

Steps

Open Windows Admin Center

Connect to your Hyper-V Server or Windows Server with Hyper-V role.

In the left panel, click Virtual Machines.

Click Add → New → New Virtual Machine.

Fill out the VM setup wizard:

Name: Choose your VM name

Generation: Gen 1 or Gen 2

Memory: Set startup memory

Virtual Switch: Select a vSwitch

Storage: Choose or create VHD/X

Installation Source:

Select ISO image

Browse to the ISO on the host or upload from your PC

Click Create.

WAC deploys the VM directly to the Hyper-V host without needing Hyper-V Manager or RDP.

✅ 2) Open and Manage Your VMs in Windows Admin Center

Once the VM exists:

Power & Basic Controls

Go to Virtual Machines.

Select your VM.

You’ll see controls:

Start

Stop

Restart

Pause

Reset

Checkpoint management

Serial Console / Enhanced Session

If VM has Guest Services, you can use:

PowerShell Direct

Secure Shell (SSH) (Linux)

Windows Admin Center Console (for Windows Server Core)

Open VM Connection

Select the VM.

Click Connect.

Choose:

VMConnect (RDP-like console)

Or WAC’s built-in HTML5 console (if supported).

This allows GUI access even if the VM has no network configured.

✅ 3) Join Your VMs to a Domain Using Windows Admin Center

You can domain-join directly from WAC, without logging into the VM manually.

Requirements

VM must be running Windows (Server/Desktop)

VM must have network access to your domain controller

Credentials for domain join

Steps

In Windows Admin Center, open Virtual Machines.

Select your VM and choose Manage as if needed (to authenticate to the guest).

Click Settings.

Under Computer name & domain, click:

Join a domain

Enter:

Domain name

Join credentials (Domain Admin or delegated rights)

Confirm and reboot the VM when prompted.

WAC performs the domain join using PowerShell Direct or using the VM’s network if possible—no RDP needed.

✅ Summary (Short Version)
✔ Install VMs

Use Virtual Machines → Add → New Virtual Machine to deploy VMs with your ISO.

✔ Manage VMs

Use WAC’s built-in VM console and management tools (start/stop, checkpoints, settings).

✔ Join VMs to Domain

Use Settings → Computer name & domain → Join domain, all from within WAC.
