[Users] 3.2 beta and IPA domain question

Hello,
I seem to remember in RHEV 3.0 that when you configured an IPA domain,
its admin was automatically configured as an admin for RHEV itself.
Is it true and in case does remain true for oVirt?

I configured IPA as shipped on CentOS 6.3+updates
ipa-server-2.2.0-17.el6_3.1.x86_64

I successfully added it to y oVirt 3.2 beta setup

[root at f18engine ~]# engine-manage-domains -action=add
-domain=LOCALDOMAIN.LOCAL -user=admin -provider=IPA -interactive
Enter password:

The domain localdomain.local has been added to the engine as an
authentication source but no users from that domain have been granted
permissions within the oVirt Manager.
Users from this domain can be granted permissions from the Web
administration interface.
oVirt Engine restart is required in order for the changes to take
place (service ovirt-engine restart).
Manage Domains completed successfully

Then
[root at f18engine ~]# systemctl try-restart ovirt-engine.service
[root at f18engine ~]# systemctl status ovirt-engine.service
ovirt-engine.service - oVirt Engine

Starting engine-service: [  OK  ]
Feb 02 00:10:29 f18engine.localdomain.local systemd[1]: Started oVirt Engine.


Now from web admin portal I can choose the "localdomain.local" domain
in drop down menu.
But when I try to enter the webadmin portal I get:

User is not authorized to perform this action.


Do I need to grant IPA admin user from internal admin before, or
should it just work?
