Currently the interactive mode is not available for A6 records. This is because unlike other record types the A6 record doesn't have any record-specific attributes. However, users might expect that they would still be able to add A6 records interactively like other record types. :
Adding A6 record interactively doesn't work:
# ipa dnsrecord-add test.com test Please choose a type of DNS resource record to be added The most common types for this type of zone are: A, AAAA DNS resource record type: A6 ipa: ERROR: No options to add a specific record provided. Command help may be consulted for all supported record types.
Adding A6 record via parameter works fine:
# ipa dnsrecord-add test.com test --a6-rec=test Record name: test A6 record: test
Another problem, having an A6 record will cause a problem to find/show operations using the --structured parameter:
# ipa dnsrecord-find test.com --structured ipa: ERROR: an internal error has occurred # ipa dnsrecord-show test.com test --structured ipa: ERROR: an internal error has occurred
