[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 381 Preserve order of servers in ipa-client-install

[Martin Kosek]

When multiple servers are passed via --server option, ipadiscovery
module changed its order. Make sure that we preserve it.

Also make sure that user is always warned when a tested server is
not available as then the server will be excluded from the fixed
server list.

------

When working on this ticket I was thinking - do we make the right thing we
deliberately remove a server from user-provided server list just because we
cannot connect to it at the moment if discovery? It may just be temporarily
down or something.

Maybe we should preserve the original --server list in this case and use this
list when writing krb5.conf or sssd.conf. Of course, for ipa-join or other
active configuration commands we would have to use only the valid servers so
that the we do not hit the server that is currently down.
