This example creates the first node in a federation server farm that uses a group Managed Service Account as the service account. In this example, a certificate thumbprint value is supplied for the CertificateThumbprint parameter. This certificate will be used as the SSL certificate and the service communications certificate. Automatically generated, self-signed certificates will be used for the token signing and token decryption certificates. To specify certificates for token signing and token decryption, specify thumbprint values for the SigningCertificateThumbprint and DecryptionCertificateThumbprint parameters.
Lists thumbprint values of currently installed certificates.

————————Example 3————————
Create the first node in a federation server farm that uses SQL Server on a remote computer
PS C:> $fscredential = Get-Credential
PS C:> Install-AdfsFarm -CertificateThumbprint 83e8l348ec6e77eb2ae17f028fe5da2be34cbed -FederationServiceName fs.Delhi.TOSSolution.com -ServiceAccountCredential $fscredential -SQLConnectionString “Data Source=SQLHost;Integrated Security=True”
Creates the first node in a federation server farm that uses a Microsoft SQL Server database on a remote computer named SQLHost.
In this example, a certificate thumbprint value is supplied for the CertificateThumbprint parameter. This certificate will be used as the SSL certificate and the service communications certificate. Automatically generated, self-signed certificates will be used for the token signing and token decryption certificates.
To specify certificates for token signing and token decryption, specify thumbprint values for the SigningCertificateThumbprint and DecryptionCertificateThumbprint parameters.


————————Example 4————————
Overwrite an AD FS configuration and create the first node in a federation server farm
PS C:> $fscredential = Get-Credential

Overwrites an existing AD FS configuration database and creates the first node in a federation server farm that uses a Microsoft SQL server database on a remote computer named SQLHost.

In this example, certificate thumbprint values are specified for the token signing certificate and for the token encryption certificate using the SigningCertificateThumbprint and DecryptionCertificateThumbprint parameters respectively.

————————Example 5———————–
Install AD FS without DA permission
PS C:>Install-AdfsFarm -CertificateThumbprint -FederationServiceName “fs.TOSSolution.com” ServiceAccountCredential $svcCred -Credential $localAdminCred [-OverwriteConfiguration] -AdminConfiguration $adminConfig

In this example, the CertificateThumbprint parameter specifies the thumbprint of the SSL certificate in the local machine My store that is used for AD FS and the Web Application Proxy.
The FederationServiceName parameter specifies the DNS name of the federation service.
The ServiceAccountCredential parameter specifies the credentials of the login account for AD FS.
The Credential parameter specifies the credentials for the local administrator (a non-domain administrator) account used install AD FS.
The AdminConfiguration parameter specifies the object returned from the CreateNonDADkmContainer.ps1 script. For example, PS C:>.\CreateNonDADkmContainer -AcctToAclDkmContainer “TOSSolution\FsSvcAcct”. The object represents the location and name of the DKM container created by the script.

————————Example 6———————–
Install AD FS without DA permission using gMSA as an AD FS account
PS C:>Set-ADServiceAccount -Identity fsgmsaacct -PrincipalsAllowedToDelegateToAccount “”
PS C:>Install-AdfsFarm -CertificateThumbprint -FederationServiceName “fs.TOSSolution.com” -Credential $localAdminCred -GroupServiceAccountIdentifier “TOSSolution\gmsaacct$” [-OverwriteConfiguration] -AdminConfiguration $adminConfig

In the first command, the PrincipalsAllowedToDelegateToAccount parameter specifies the name of the non-domain administrator account used to install AD FS.
In the second command, the CertificateThumbprint parameter specifies the thumbprint of the SSL certificate in the local machine My store that is used for AD FS and the Web Application Proxy.
The FederationServiceName parameter specifies the DNS name of the federation service.
The Credential parameter specifies the credentials for the local administrator (a non-domain administrator) account used install AD FS.
The GroupServiceAccountIdentifier parameter specifies the name of the gMSA logon account for AD FS. The identifier must be terminated by a dollar sign ($).
The AdminConfiguration parameter specifies the object returned from the CreateNonDADkmContainer.ps1 script, which represents the location and name of the DKM container created by the script.
