OCI: How to add secondary AD servers in SSSD

edited May 1, 2024 4:22PM in Linux

APPLIES TO:

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

Linux x86-64

GOAL:

By default SSSD only allows a primary and a secondary AD using

ad_server_primary
ad_server_backup

To add more than 2 AD, add them as secondary AD servers

SOLUTION:

By default sssd will first use the ad_server_primary then ad_server_backup. However there is also an option to add additional AD.

ad_backup_servers

To add additional server(s) for example, configuration as below:

ad_server_primary: DC1.example.com
ad_server_backup: DC2. example.comad_backup_servers: DC3.example.com

Howdy, Stranger!
