But it show directly remove the active directory.

    I believe you are running dcpromo command on an existing domain controller.

    When you run dcpromo on a non-DC server, it will provide you the option to promote the server to create a new domain or promote it as DC for an existing domain.

    If you run dcpromo on an existing domain controller, you will get the option to remove Active Directory from the server.

    Each AD domain will need to have their own domain controller. If you want to create a new domain, you will need to run dcpromo on a Windows server which is not a domain controller of an existing domain.

    Hi,  thanks..
        I know that when i want to create or add another domain in an existing domain then it not ask me to "Additional domain controller for an existing domain". I think it should be ask?
    Could you tell me how to add another new domain or new forest in active directory?

    Please advice me...

    The answer is run dcpromo on a windows server which is not an existing domain controller, thenselect appropriate option from the wizard. You should see following screen on the wizard, select "Domain Controller for a new domain":

    You will then have the option to either create a new domain or new forest:
