We are hosting a few servers at Amazon and using their Elastic Load Balancing service that gives us a link to a load balancer in the following format:</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;">
<br>
</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;">
webserver-1234567890.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com</div>

I was looking for a ways to implement a shorter alias using CNAME like:</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;">
<br>
</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;">
webserver.mydomain.com pointing to longer link from the load balancer webserver-1234567890.us-west-2.elb.amazonaws.com</div>
<div>
<div id="">

<div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri,

Is there a way to do it in RHEL 7.1 with IPA server 4.1.0 using different domain names?</div>

Hello Andrey,<br>
<br>
If I understand correctly, IPA manages mydomain.com zone, so adding CNAME record should be simple:<br>
<br>
ipa dnsrecord-add mydomain.com webserver --cname-rec='webserver-1234567890.us-west-2.elb.amazonaws.com.' # <-- do not forget to add dot at the end<br>
<br>
If mydomain.com is managed outside IPA, the CNAME should be set on that external server, IPA cannot help in this case.<br>
