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.
... and make sure you *don't*
do that on IPA masters themselves. These
*must* always point to themselves, with no _srv_ keyword.
