Product Overview
SharePoint Server 2016 has been designed, developed, and tested with the Microsoft Software as
a Service (SaaS) strategy, building on SharePoint Online as its core. Drawing extensively from
that experience, SharePoint Server 2016 offers you new and improved, highly flexible deployment
options. You can choose from a traditional on-premises deployment, a hosted service with
Microsoft Office 365 sites powered by Microsoft SharePoint Online, deployment in Azure
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), or a mix of these options with a hybrid approach, empowering
you to choose how and when you take advantage of on-premises or cloud-based solutions, all
without changing the user experience. Seamless integration with on-premises people
experiences and taxonomy ensure a consistent experience within or beyond the firewall.
Dear Folk’s: Microsoft has officially made SharePoint 2016 available for us to play with. I’ve had
the chance to play with it for a little while, and here's everything you need to know about
installation. I am going to setup SharePoint 2016 with backend SQL Server 2016 in a highly
available failover cluster environment to test its core features and show you how we can start its
installation Step by Step with 4 Node Cluster, two Node will act as APP Server’s and two Node
will act as Web Server’s.
Lab Setup
This lab setup is based on Virtualized environment with ESX 6.0, so basic knowledge is required
to setup this lab in the same Virtualized environment. This can also be achieved by setting up
the same in Hyper-V. Table 1.1 is providing complete information about the Virtual Machines
names, Network Cards, IP/Subnet mask, and Replication Network.

Both SQL Server will use shared storage for Cluster, DB, Logs and Temps.

Note: - You can use minimum storage for testing and lab purpose but for production
environment you have to look into the data growth in your organization and plan the storage
requirement accordingly.
Installation of SharePoint on App01 Server
Create two service accounts in AD for SharePoint Installation.
Add full permission to first node of APP server Property Security Apply Ok
Add SP-Admin-01 account in SQL as Sysadmin.
SharePoint Node 2 Installation Application Server-02
Let’s install the application server on SP-APP-02. I just shown here the first and necessary steps
rest of steps will remain same on Node 2.
Both Application Server Roles are successfully installed in centralized SQL Server 2 Node Cluster.
SharePoint Web Server Installation Node-01
At this point we have completed the installation of 2nd Node for Application role. Let’s install
First Node in Web Form Server.
Remaining installation steps will remain same I will just show only the snaps having changes and
SharePoint Server Role selection.
At this point we have completed the installation of First Node of SharePoint Web Server role and
same steps are required to do on the 2nd Node of SharePoint Web server.
I hope you will enjoy the smooth process of this Step by Step 4 Node SharePoint Server 2016
Deployment.
Before starting of this installation you need to setup the SQL Server cluster first, for that purpose
you need to follow my earlier Step by Step SQL Server 2016 2 Node Cluster.

I hope both Step by Step will help you to understand and smooth installation of SharePoint and
SQL Server Cluster
