If you are using Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2 then you may have noticed that all of Microsoft’s online services integration features, which include Azure Active Directory and Office 365, are supported only in environments that have a single domain controller.

Microsoft have announced that the re-release of the Windows August Update which was originally released on (8/12/2014, PST) now adds support for both Azure Active Directory integration and Office 365 integration features in domain environments consisting of a single domain controller, multiple domain controllers, or Windows Server Essentials as a domain member server.
