Purpose::
IPA is used as Identity management server for Fedora users. It serves as backend for
Fedora Account System.
== Description
link:https://www.freeipa.org/[IPA] is used as a backend LDAP database for handling the
user authentication inside Fedora Infrastructure.
== Known issues
Most issues regarding user data could be solved through web interface.
=== Web UI redirects to internal name
If web UI starts redirecting to internal name instead of link:https://id.fedoraproject.org/ipa/ui[]
you need to either run `ipa.yml` playbook or fix that in `/etc/httpd/conf.d/ipa-redirects.conf` on the
machine that the redirection is going to.
== Checking status
To check status of IPA cluster you simply need to ssh to any of the servers and run
`ipactl status`.
== Restarting
To restart the IPA service you simply need to ssh to any of the servers and issue an
`ipactl restart`.
== Configuration
Configuration is handled by the

playbook in Ansible. This playbook could also be used to reconfigure application,
if that becomes necessary.
