Issue

TTL value in IdM managed DNS records is inconsistent:

  • TTL of an existing A record is 1200

    idmserver.example.com.  1200    IN  A   192.168.1.10
    
  • TTL of a newly added A record is 86400

    # ipa dnsrecord-add example.com foo --a-rec 127.0.0.1
      Record name: foo
      A record: 127.0.0.1
    
    # dig +nocmd +noall +answer foo.example.com
    foo.example.com.    86400   IN  A   127.0.0.1
