From what I read in your link it seems far from intuitive from an oVirt
admin point of view who probably doesn't know ldap/IPA so in depth... authn
and authz concepts overlap with related files and I have not understood how
many files I have to add and if @AUTHZ_NAME@ and @AUTHN_NAME@ are the same
string for a fixed IPA server or not...
also reading
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/AAA
doesn't clarify at least based my knowledge of ladap in general and IPA in
particular (that is not so much...)
We may provide a wrapper tool in future, for now we focused about making it work as there
were too many issues within the existing implementation. Configuration is one time while
problems are within the runtime.
Previsously I "only" had to run
engine-manage-domains add --domain=localdomain.local --provider=ipa
--user=admin
and my configured IPA 3.0 worked without any problem...
Can you detail what would be the structure of files
under /etc/ovirt-engine/extensions.d/ ?
Or anyone already configured with IPA and has a working example of files?
it should be even simpler... :)
1. copy recursive /usr/share/ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap/examples/simple to
/etc/ovirt-engine
2. edit /etc/ovirt-engine/aaa/ldap1.properties, set vars.server, vars.user, vars.password
to meet your setup, uncomment ipa on top and comment out the openldap.
3. until 3.5.1 you should also edit /etc/ovirt-engine/extensions.d/*.properties and
replace ../aaa with /etc/ovirt-engine/aaa
