[Users] Ipa server inside ovirt itself. ..

Hello, I have a test environment where I am short of hw. My engine is based on fedora 18 and I would like to test freeipa on centos 6. What are the drawbacks of creating a vm that is also one authentication domain for ovirt itself (apart the obvious ones)? Can i set it so that is the first to start? Can i set a subset of VMs to start only if this one is up and is giving ipa service (for example through a test connect command? ) Thanks Gianluca

Hi, I don't see big issues, as you can always log into oVirt as admin@internal and start/stop/reset/... your IPA-vm. If your other vms use IPA for authentication (e.g. for service SSH) you can configure sssd for caching credentials if your IPA server is unavailable. ipa-client-install is doing it automatically, btw.
