Hi!

With newly created AD machines in Brno lab, existing trust tests fail on 'ipa dnsforwardzone-add' command claiming the zone is already present,
as new AD domain is dom-221.idm.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com.

To prevent these failures I prepared attached patch, that will still
attempt to add the forward zone, but in case of non-zero return code
will check the message if it says that the forward zone is already
configured, and lets the tests continue, if it is so.

Current approach expects that every error of ipa dnsforward-add here
will mean that the zone exists. So it might hide other issues - not very
good.

On the other hand it is not very robust to parse error message.

Question for general audience: What do you think if IPA client's exit
status would be the IPA error code instead of "1" for every error. E.g.
in DuplicateEntry case it's 4002.

Btw, this is not a NACK.


Well AFAIK the exit status on POSIX systems is encoded into a single byte so you cannot have the return value greater that 255. We would have to devise some mapping between our XMLRPC status codes and subprocess return codes.

Some of our exceptions have defined return values outside plain '1', e.g. NotFound has return value of 2. It would be possible to extend this concept on
other common errors.

Even more importantly, the forward zone is completely unnecessary because DNS when DNS is set up properly. I would simply remove the dnsforwardzone-add.

Grr, I meant this:

+1, our tests should not fiddle with the provisioned environment as much as they sometimes do.

Well, I have nothing against removing it completely, but left it there just because with previous AD machines with "wild" domains it was necessary. Looking at the code, your suggestion would probably mean to entirely remove method configure_dns_for_trust from ipatests/test_integration/tasks.py, right? I'll have to verify this won't break anything else.
