Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
"man sssd-ad" has following entry "FAILOVER" in the failover section.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This section lists the available tunables. Please refer to their description in the sssd.conf(5), manual page.
dns_resolver_server_timeout
Time in milliseconds that sets how long would SSSD talk to a single DNS server before trying next one.
Default: 1000
dns_resolver_op_timeout
Time in seconds to tell how long would SSSD try to resolve single DNS query (e.g. resolution of a hostname or an SRV
record) before trying the next hostname or discovery domain.
Default: 2
dns_resolver_timeout
How long would SSSD try to resolve a failover service. This service resolution internally might include several steps,
such as resolving DNS SRV queries or locating the site.
Default: 4
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
As per above line the tunable parameter description should be present in "man sssd.conf" but base on check tunables "dns_resolver_server_timeout" and "dns_resolver_op_timeout" information is not present in "man sssd.conf".
Also when below error is observed, the man pages does not clarify under which section the parameter "dns_resolver_op_timeout" should be configured.
