Have you ever wanted to take an Infrastructure as Code approach to deploying and managing Red Hat IDM (or FreeIPA)? I have great news for you, it is not only possible, but you can do it with Ansible Automation Platform!
In this session, I will cover automating:
\- Deployment of IDM
\- Configuration of IDM \(Establishing Trust with AD\, Configuring CA\, Configuring External DNS\, and much more\!\)
\- Creating DNS records for servers and clients
\- Creating IDM Replicas for High Availability
