Hello,
to prevent such situation is to prevent installing new packages.
FreeIPA cannot prevent it but yum can.
You can use `yum version-lock` in package yum-plugin-versionlock

I just installed a new replica on Centos 7.3. Our existing servers
are also on Centos 7.3, and use IPA 4.4, which comes with Centos 7.3. I was somewhat
surprised to find that my new replica was IPA 4.5 with a newer version of sssd as well. It
appears that the replica install process did the Centos 7.4 upgrades for ipa and sssd,
though the rest of the system is still Cento 7.3. The resulting system works, with only
minor differences in behavior in sssd. But it was unexpected.
We’ll do a full Centos 7.4 upgrade at the next major break, but had been holding off
doing that during a semester.
It’s moderately important to me not to get unexpected versions of software. I didn’t even
notice the difference until the replica was in production. In a sense that’s good, because
it means 4.5 works fine. But we could also have discovered it that hard way …
