Introduction
Red Hat Identity Management Server provides is a centralized identity management server for Linux, Mac, Windows.
In this post we are going to setup and configure a HA deployment of Red Hat IDM on two RHEL 7.x servers.
Red Hat Identity Management Server is based on the upstream project, FreeIPA.
Prerequisites
Only a couple of prerequisites for a simple lab setup
- You need working dns with forward and reverse entries for both IDM servers
- NSCD needs to be disabled on each IDM server
- Proper hostname needs to be set on each IDM node (cannot use localhost)
- IPV6 needs to be enabled, but you do not need to have an IPV6 address on external interfaces
