Description Greg Scott 2017-03-13 16:18:15 UTC

Description of problem:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1325746 asks for the ability to access RHEVM by alternate FQDNs or aliases.  That bugzilla is closed-->currentrelease.

The doc text box contains this text:

*******************
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 practice.
*******************

We need this in the official RHV documentation
