Hello
Not sure if this is more a generic DNS question or not ...
We run FreeIPA 4.6.4 on a RHEL7.6 clone, we do not use FreeIPA DNS and we currently do not
use DNS discovery. I have read this:
https://www.freeipa.org/page/Howto/IPA_locations<https://www.freeipa.o...
and am comfortable configuring split view DNS records.
As we depoy more sites. I am looking to move to using DNS discovery, however we use site
specific DNS domains (rightly or wrongly with a private TLD ... cross that bridge when we
come to it ...) such as:
site1.blah
site2.blah
which is different from the given example of
example.com being used across all sites.
Our Realm Domain is blah - I have put the location based DNS records immediately under
.blah.
In testing, I see ipa clients initially query DNS for SRV records under site1.blah - when
that fails the clients then perform a second DNS query for SRV records under .blah - which
works and my test outcome is good - the setup works!
Is it safe for me to assume that this process will remain the same for future IDM client
versions? My concern is that if future versions neglect the second-attempt DNS discovery
lookup (under .blah) then my setup will break.
Thanks for any pointers
Angus
