You can use the Set up Certification Authority with PowerShell from Vadims Podans to configure a Certification Authority (CA) on Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2. The other role services do not have a PowerShell methods for configuring them before Windows Server 2012. In Windows Server 2012, there are cmdlets to configure all six role services. Before you can configure an individual role service, you must install the role service's binaries. There are also two cmdlets for each role service in order to configure or remove the role service. The following table lists each AD CS role service and the corresponding cmdlets to install the binaries, configure, and remove it.
