Enrol the Satellite server with the IPA server using the
ipa-client-install command. This will step through the required configuration options to enrol the Satellite server.

[no]: yes User authorized to enroll computers: admin Synchronizing time with KDC... Password for admin@EXAMPLE.COM: *********
When complete, the Satellite server acts as an client using the IPA Server details.
The IPA server also requires a HTTP Service for the Satellite server. Authenticate the Satellite server against the IPA server with the admin user and run the
ipa service-add command:
[root@satellite ~]# kinit admin [root@satellite ~]# ipa service-add HTTP/satellite.example.com -------------------------------------------------- Added service "HTTP/satellite.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM" -------------------------------------------------- Principal: HTTP/satellite.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM Managed by: satellite.example.com
