Description Felix Dewaleyne 2016-01-08 11:22:54 UTC
1. Proposed title of this feature request  
      implement more options of the IPA installer
      
    2. Who is the customer behind the request?  
    Account: name and acct # <- please include both 

        Proxy Services B.V. - acc#1453768
      
    TAM customer: no
    SRM customer: no
    Strategic: no
      
    3. What is the nature and description of the request?  

        The customer is using a more advanced IPA setup than what Cloudforms can configure for out of the box : multiple servers are used and folders should be created for users logging onto the server. Their typical ipa setup command being in the form of 

ipa-client-install --domain=<DOMAIN.COM> --server=ipa01.domain.com --server=ipa02.domain.com --server=ipa03.domain.com --no-ntp -p "<IPA-ADIMIN>" -w <PASSWD> --mkhomedir --no-dns-sshfp

      
    4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here) 

they want to be able to configure the appliance through the appliance_console at setup, but right now need to customize their deployment manually. 
      
    5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)  

    more options in appliance_console to configure the IPA setup ; they need at least a way to set multiple server and mkhomedir.
      
    6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

deploy a multi server ipa setup that requires users to log in and sudo root commands.  
      
    7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?  

    not aware of one
      
    8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL5, RHEL6)?  

    update to cfme5.5 or later
      
    9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?  

    no
      

      
    11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?  

    yes.

This BZ has been closed since it was opened on a version of CloudForms that has reached the end of its lifecycle.  If you find that this bug is still relevant, please open a new BZ against the relevant supported version of CloudForms.
