You have a server named Server1 that has a Server Core installation of Windows Server 2008 R2.
Server1 has the DHCP Server server role and the File Server server role installed.

Installation.

Explanation:
D:
Upgrade to 2012 R2 and install GUI shell
Upgrades that switch from a Server Core installation to the Server with a GUI mode of Windows Server 2012
R2 in one step (and vice versa) are not supported.
However, after upgrade is complete, Windows Server 2012 R2 allows you to switch freely between Server Core
and Server with a GUI modes.
