I would recommend against doing that and install the SCCM client domain controllers manually instead or through SCOM or something else, adding the client push account to the domain admins group is something I would avoid.

No push account was ever added to the Domain Admins, so now I am VERY confused on how the client installed on the domain controllers.
I am not the Active Directory Admin so I do not have any admin rights on domain controllers, but I opened up the Domain Admins group and absolutely NO SCCM client push account was in there and the Domain Admin told me that he never added any SCCM client push account to Domain Admins and that he wouldn't anyway.
WEIRD!!
Is there something else it uses?No push account was ever added to the Domain Admins, so now I am VERY confused on how the client installed on the domain controllers.

I looked at the builtin\Administrators group in AD and there sitting in the group was in fact an SCCM push account.
So I asked the Domain Admin about it and they did indeed add it after all.
So that explains why.
Sorry to have all of you scratching your head.
