Um - how is it supposed to know where every server is? DC information is stored in AD - that's easy to extract. Server information means querying the OS version of every computer object. Then locating the IP address of that server, say, in DNS (and then what happens if you have duplicate records for a particular server?), and then adding it to a diagram. That said, I think Visio 2002 Enterprise Architect edition did this.
But you may be better off just writing some script that has the necessary logic for your environment to do this.
