26장. Installing an Identity Management client using an Ansible playbook

Learn more about how to configure a system as an Identity Management (IdM) client by using Ansible. Configuring a system as an IdM client enrolls it into an IdM domain and enables the system to use IdM services on IdM servers in the domain.

The deployment is managed by the ipaclient Ansible role. By default, the role uses the autodiscovery mode for identifying the IdM servers, domain and other settings. The role can be modified to have the Ansible playbook use the settings specified, for example in the inventory file.
