Description daniel 2016-10-21 12:38:36 UTC
Description of problem:
in bz 1376329 we provide a solution how to access engine not only by engine FQDN but also using alternate host names.
This feature should also be documented downstream.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHV4


How reproducible:
n/a


Steps to Reproduce:
n/a

Actual results:
not documented how to use that feature in Red Hat docs


Expected results:
Find in documentation how to use that feture


Additional info:

from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1325746 :
Engine can be accessed using alternate host names (or IP addresses) that can configured by adding a new configuration file (for example /etc/ovirt-engine/engine.conf.d/99-custom-sso-setup.conf) with following content:

SSO_ALTERNATE_ENGINE_FQDNS="alias1.example.com alias2.example.com"

The list of alternate names has to be listed separated by spaces.

It's possible to add also IP addresses of engine host, but using IP addresses instead of DNS names is not considered to be a good practise.
