DNS entries for IPA replicas

Latest response

I'm still getting up-to-speed with IPA (and RHEL in general) - thus far I have always deployed a single IPA server in my lab. I also host my DNS on separate hosts (and append the ZONE file with the IPA provided data).

Today I decided to start using replicated IPA hosts. So, in my case I will use RHIPA01 (master), and RHIPA02 (replica)

My question is: do I simply append the data for the replica (RHIPA02) and include RHIPA01?
If so - does it simply round-robin the requests?

; ldap servers
_ldap._tcp IN SRV 0 100 389 rhipa01
_ldap._tcp IN SRV 0 100 389 rhipa02

;kerberos realm
_kerberos IN TXT AREA51.PRIVATE

; kerberos servers
_kerberos._tcp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa01
_kerberos._udp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa01
_kerberos-master._tcp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa01
_kerberos-master._udp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa01
_kpasswd._tcp IN SRV 0 100 464 rhipa01
_kpasswd._udp IN SRV 0 100 464 rhipa01

; kerberos servers
_kerberos._tcp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa02
_kerberos._udp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa02
_kerberos-master._tcp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa02
_kerberos-master._udp IN SRV 0 100 88 rhipa02
_kpasswd._tcp IN SRV 0 100 464 rhipa02
_kpasswd._udp IN SRV 0 100 464 rhipa02

Otherwise, do I remove the rhipa01 information and replace it all with rhipa02?
