I'm not entirely sure I follow, posting the exact message(s) you're
seeing would help, but what I think you did was:

# ipa-client-install --server=foo.example.test

And you got a notice about failover

If so I'd check out the DNS Autodiscovery in the ipa-client-install man
page.

Failover also uses DNS discovery so if it won't work during install it
likely won't work post-install either.
