Requirement to have an on-prem AD

    on-prem AD is not required.


    AD requirements:
    Option 1: Domain controller that is synchronized with Azure Active Directory. The domain controller can be on-prem or in cloud. To synchronize with Azure Active Directory install Azure Active Directory Connect.
    Option 2: Azure AD Domain Services domain in Azure (automatically synced with Azure Active Directory)

Thanks. I have this working now using Azure ADDS. Documentation seemed a bit unclear when I first looked at it

HandA  Did you get it to work without need of on-premise AD or AD Connect?

      Alberto Rodriguez : Do you have access to those VMs? If you can RDP into them, please look at C:\Packages and navigate down to the JsonADDomainExtension folder, you should be able to find a "status" file (or equivalent). If you open it up, it will typically give you the reason that it errored out. Unfortunately, I do not have too many details at the moment because the documentation on the extension is fairly light.
