#3344 [RFE] dnszone-add should provide default value to --name-server option
Closed: Fixed None Opened 11 years ago by pspacek.

Ticket #3343 deals with NS record management during ipa-replica-install. Same rule applies to general DNS management:

Generally, all IPA managed zones should contain all IPA servers in NS records. Admin tools should create default NS records - single record for each IPA server with DNS installed.

There are special cases (like installations with many replicas) where it makes sense to list only some replicas to keep size of DNS replies under 512 bytes. For those cases there should be possibility to explicitly define --name-server and let admin add other records by hand.


Implementation note: Randomly picked IPA+DNS server could be used for SOA mname. Each IPA server overrides this value with own name by default.

Moving my tickets back to free-to-take pool.

Scheduling for re-triage. This feature would help when IPA is used as part of system for automatic provisioning.

No need to clone the ticket - tracked in #4149.
