MSDYN35BC 2019 Wave 2 - How to Create New Server Instance?

Hi Readers,

In this article, we will discuss how we can create a New Service Tier for Business Central 2019 Wave 2.

Yes, we can do it from the administration panel, but I think we should start working all our NAV / Business central Administration via Powershell.


For this article, lets support I need to create a new service for my blog articles with the following parameters.

1. ServerInstance (Service Name) - BC150Blog
2. Management Service Port - 15050
3. Client Service Port - 15051
4. SOAP Service Port - 15052
5. ODATA Service Port - 15053
6. Development Service Port - 15054

You can setup other parameters like database name and server name.

Let's discuss step by step.

1. Open Powershell as administrator.

2. Import-Module for Business Central Wave 2 and refresh command panel on the right.
Import-Module 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central\150\Service\NavAdminTool.ps1'

3. Search and use cmdlet New-NAVServerInstance to create a new service and specify Parameter as listed above.

4. Run the command.
