Chapter 5. Migrating to IdM on RHEL 10 from FreeIPA on non-RHEL Linux distributions


To migrate a FreeIPA deployment on a non-RHEL Linux distribution to Identity Management (IdM) on RHEL 10, you must add a new RHEL 10 IdM Certificate Authority (CA) replica to your existing FreeIPA environment, transfer certificate-related roles to it, and then retire the non-RHEL FreeIPA servers.

Warning

Performing an in-place conversion of a non-RHEL FreeIPA server to a RHEL 10 IdM server using the Convert2RHEL tool is not supported.

Important

If your environment has a trust with Active Directory (AD) and uses Public Key Cryptography for Initial Authentication (PKINIT), be aware that RHEL 10 disables SHA-1 by default. Older versions of AD require SHA-1 for PKINIT.

  • If you are integrating with an AD environment older than Windows Server 2025, you must set the LEGACY cryptographic policy on the RHEL 10 server to allow PKINIT to function:

    # update-crypto-policies --set LEGACY
  • Windows Server 2025 and later versions support SHA-2, so the LEGACY policy is not required.

Prerequisites

On the RHEL 10 system:

On the non-RHEL FreeIPA server:

  • Ensure you know the time server that the system is synchronized with:

    [root@freeipaserver ~]# ntpstat
    synchronised to NTP server (ntp.example.com) at stratum 3
       time correct to within 42 ms
       polling server every 1024 s
  • Update the ipa-* packages to their latest version:

    [root@freeipaserver ~]# dnf update ipa-*

Procedure

  1. To perform the migration, follow the same procedure as Migrating your IdM environment from RHEL 9 servers to RHEL 10 servers, with your non-RHEL FreeIPA CA replica acting as the RHEL 9 server:

    1. Configure a RHEL 10 server and add it as an IdM replica to your current FreeIPA environment on the non-RHEL Linux distribution. For details, see Installing the RHEL 10 Replica.
    2. Make the RHEL 10 replica the certificate authority (CA) renewal server. For details, see Assigning the CA renewal server role to the RHEL 10 IdM server.
    3. Stop generating the certificate revocation list (CRL) on the non-RHEL server and redirect CRL requests to the RHEL 10 replica. For details, see Stopping CRL generation on the RHEL 9 IdM CA server.
    4. Start generating the CRL on the RHEL 10 server. For details, see Starting CRL generation on the new RHEL 10 IdM CA server.
    5. Stop and decommission the original non-RHEL FreeIPA CA renewal server. For details, see Stopping and decommissioning the RHEL 9 server.
