Here need to clear few point...

Was the crashed server a domain controller ?

If it is not a domain controller just add the server to existing domain(no need to install AD)

Once server is joined to the domain install vCenter.

Hi,

Which server was crashed is it V-center or Domain controller?


As per you post you already joined the server to Domain, so no need to perform the task which your showing with screenshot.
Now you can install the V-center.
