You cannot run the schema installer on a domain controller that hosts Windows Server 2008 Core.
Windows Server 2008 Core does not use a GUI (for security and performance reasons). To use
the schema installer, you must install a GUI on the domain controller or use a domain controller
that hosts an earlier version of Windows.

Schema installer

Bundled with the schema installer are one or more .xml files. These files contain the schema that
will be added to the directory. Typically, one of these files will contain core schema that is common
to all the supported directory services. Additional files contain only product-specific schemas. The
schema installer requires the use of the .NET framework.

The installer includes three important screens:

Schema Preview

Setup

Results

Schema Preview

The Schema Preview screen enables the user to view the proposed extensions to the schema. This
screen reads the selected schema files, parses the XML, and displays it as a tree view. It lists all
of the details of the attributes and classes that will be installed.

Setup

The Setup screen is used to enter the appropriate information before extending the schema.

The Directory Server section of the Setup screen enables you to select whether you will be using
Active Directory or eDirectory, and to set the computer name and the port to be used for LDAP
communications.
