ipaserver role
==============

Description
-----------

This role allows to configure and IPA server.

**Note**: The ansible playbooks and role require a configured ansible environment where the ansible nodes are reachable and are properly set up to have an IP address and a working package manager.


Features
--------
* Server deployment


Supported FreeIPA Versions
--------------------------

FreeIPA versions 4.5 and up are supported by the server role.


Supported Distributions
-----------------------

* RHEL/CentOS 7.6+
* Fedora 26+
* Ubuntu


Requirements
------------

**Controller**
* Ansible version: 2.8+

**Node**
* Supported FreeIPA version (see above)
* Supported distribution (needed for package installation only, see above)


Limitations
-----------

External signed CA

External signed CA is now supported. But the currently needed two step process is an issue for the processing in a simple playbook.

Work is planned to have a new method to handle CSR for external signed CAs in a separate step before starting the server installation.


Usage
=====

Example inventory file with fixed domain and realm, setting up of the DNS server and using forwarders from /etc/resolv.conf:

    [ipaserver]
    ipaserver2.example.com
    
    [ipaserver:vars]
    ipaserver_domain=example.com
    ipaserver_realm=EXAMPLE.COM
    ipaserver_setup_dns=yes
    ipaserver_auto_forwarders=yes

Example playbook to setup the IPA server using admin and dirman passwords from an [Ansible Vault](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbooks_vault.html) file:

    - name: Playbook to configure IPA server
      hosts: ipaserver
      become: true
      vars_files:
      - playbook_sensitive_data.yml
    
      roles:
      - role: ipaserver
        state: present

Example playbook to unconfigure the IPA client(s) using principal and password from inventory file:

    - name: Playbook to unconfigure IPA server
      hosts: ipaserver
      become: true
    
      roles:
      - role: ipaserver
        state: absent

Example inventory file with fixed domain, realm, admin and dirman passwords:

    [ipaserver]
    ipaserver.example.com
    
    [ipaserver:vars]
    ipaserver_domain=example.com
    ipaserver_realm=EXAMPLE.COM
    ipaadmin_password=MySecretPassword123
    ipadm_password=MySecretPassword234

Example playbook to setup the IPA server using admin and dirman passwords from inventory file:

    - name: Playbook to configure IPA server
      hosts: ipaserver
      become: true
    
      roles:
      - role: ipaserver
        state: present

Example playbook to setup the IPA primary with external signed CA using the previous inventory file:

Server installation step 1: Generate CSR, copy to controller as `<ipaserver hostname>-ipa.csr`

```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to configure IPA server step1
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true
  vars:
    ipaserver_external_ca: yes

  roles:
  - role: ipaserver
    state: present

  post_tasks:
  - name: Copy CSR /root/ipa.csr from node to "{{ groups.ipaserver[0] + '-ipa.csr' }}"
    fetch:
      src: /root/ipa.csr
      dest: "{{ groups.ipaserver[0] + '-ipa.csr' }}"
      flat: yes
```

Sign with CA: This is up to you

Server installation step 2: Copy `<ipaserver hostname>-chain.crt` to the IPA server and continue with installation of the primary.

```yaml
- name: Playbook to configure IPA server step3
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true
  vars:
    ipaserver_external_cert_files: "/root/chain.crt"

  pre_tasks:
  - name: Copy "{{ groups.ipaserver[0] + '-chain.crt' }}" to /root/chain.crt on node
    copy:
      src: "{{ groups.ipaserver[0] + '-chain.crt' }}"
      dest: "/root/chain.crt"
      force: yes

  roles:
  - role: ipaserver
    state: present
```

The files can also be copied automatically: Set `ipaserver_copy_csr_to_controller` to true in the server installation step 1 and set `ipaserver_external_cert_files_from_controller` to point to the `chain.crt` file in the server installation step 2.


Playbooks
=========

The playbooks needed to deploy or undeploy a server are part of the repository in the playbooks folder. There are also playbooks to deploy and undeploy clusters.
```
install-server.yml
uninstall-server.yml
```
Please remember to link or copy the playbooks to the base directory of ansible-freeipa if you want to use the roles within the source archive.


How to setup a server
---------------------

```bash
ansible-playbook -v -i inventory/hosts install-server.yml
```
This will deploy the server defined in the inventory file.
