Hi I've got 5 different IPA servers at 5 differents labs around the country that are all replicas of one another. In order to keep the the cross-site network traffic to a minimum I want the IPA clients at Site "A" to only communicate to IPA Server "A", "B" to "B", "C" to "C" etc. except in the case of the failure of one of the servers.
I originally assumed that making the IPA client to connect to a specific IPA server with "ipa-client-install --server=IPA_server_fqdn" would suffice but I very quickly found out this wasn't the case with the client going to multiple servers just to complete the installation process. Then I found out about modifying the DNS SRV records priority and weight however, please correct me if I'm wrong, these wouldn't these changes replicate and be enacted gloablly. (i.e. all clients at any site would prioritise IPA "A" over IPA "B"). Is there any way to get the functionality I desire? Thanks, Charlie
