To install Identity Management for UNIX components using Windows PowerShell, perform the following steps:

Open a Windows PowerShell session with elevated user rights. To do this, click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, click Windows PowerShell, right-click the Windows PowerShell shortcut, and then click Run as administrator.
Before working with Server Manager cmdlets, you must Load the Server Manager module into the Windows PowerShell session, simply type:
```
PS> Import-Module Servermanager
```
Perform one of the following (depending on which options you require):
1. To install all the "Identity Management for UNIX" components, type:
```
PS> Add-WindowsFeature ADDS-Identity-Mgmt -restart
```
2. To install "Server for NIS" only, type:
```
PS> Add-WindowsFeature ADDS-NIS -restart
```
3. To install just the "Password Synchronization" roles only, type:
```
PS> Add-WindowsFeature ADDS-Password-Sync -restart
```

NOTE: A restart of the computer is required when you install Identity Management for UNIX. The -restart parameter restarts the computer automatically after installation is finished.
