#4880 [RFE] FreeIPA server should not advertise itself when in 'maintenance mode'
Closed: wontfix 5 years ago Opened 9 years ago by pspacek.

It practically means that server which is not running should not be advertised in DNS SRV records.


Triage discussion:

  • D.P. The proposal was to remove SRV records from DNS while server is not available
  • [pspacek] Implementation is an open topic but I incline to simple thing like:
  • ipactl stop -> remove SRV records
    • successfull ipactl start -> add SRV records
    • [mbasti] NS/SOA records maintenance - do we want to remove NS records of server from zones?
    • mkosek: I am not a fan to do that much processing behind the scenes in ipactl. What if somebody just restarts it? And the stopping or startup service fails? Explicit command seems more clear.
    • [pspacek] I'm fine with explicit command, we can revisit this any time if necessary.
