Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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.

Fixed In Version: ipa-2.2.0-1.el6 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: IPA installer did not process host IP address properly --no-host-dns option was passed. Consequence: When hostname was not resolvable and --no-host-dns option was used, ipa-replica-install failed in a middle of the installation and did not amend the host name resolution in the same way as ipa-server-install does. Fix: ipa-server-install and ipa-replica-install now share host IP address processing. They both add a record to /etc/hosts when the server/replica hostname is not resolvable. Result: ipa-replica-install is now more robust and prevents more user errors when replica hostname is not resolvable.

Description Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2011-11-28 11:26:53 UTC 
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-2.1.3-9.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup ipa-server.
2. Prepare a replica file.
3. ipa-replica-install with --no-host-dns option.
  
Actual results: replica install fails with "Unable to resolve IP address for hos name"

Expected results: Should not use hostname lookup during installation and replica install should be successful.
