Hi all,
I have a small setup with two masters and several clients at one location.
I have noticed that when the first master goes down for maintenance or
failure, the other server is unable to authenticate users. Is there a
setting that needs to be made in order to achieve this as long as the first
master is off? Shouldn't this be taken care of automatically?
That depends on how the clients are configured. You'll want
"ipa_server" option is set to "_srv_, $ipaserver", then sssd on the
client would expand the _srv_ keyword with hostnames resolved using the
DNS SRV query and should fail over between them.
If that doesn't happen, the logs should be inspected..
