thank you very much for the link.

I have done this, and I agree the directions can be overwhelming. I had a single Office Online Server, which is easier. Here's a good youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vmzN9uyglk. Tip#1: don't run automatic updates, manually patch this one, reboot it when it's done whether it asks you to or not. I had problems with it hanging on updates about once a year. Tip#2: Save the Powershell scripts you use to configure. You'll reuse them when you update the certificates, and maybe if you need to troubleshoot or if there is a significant update.
