When using AD objects, a user expects to use the more human readable
form, like "user@ad.domain", but this impose some dificulties on
evaluating which object is being referenced as AD has several forms to
refer to the same object.
Each object is AD is identified uniquely by its SID, and this is the
identifier that IPA stores in its database. When managing AD objects,
IPA finds its SID and works with that value.
ansible-freeipa tried to process these objects using the human readable
values, and it cause idempontence error when ensuring the values were
present or modified, and, at least in some cases, prevented the objects
to be made absent, as the object list created didn't match the SID to
the value used as module parameter.
By using SID to process the AD objects in ipagroup, the addition or
removal of members works and idempotence of these members is ensured.
The only issue with thils approach is that it only works no server
nodes. In client nodes, the conversion to SID is not available and the
same issues that existed before will still be present.
Tests were updated to reflect these changes, a new test, specific to
idempotence issues of AD objects was added:
tests/group/test_group_ad_users.yml
Resolves: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-70023
A dangling 'when:' clause was failing anisble-lint tests as the task did
not match any valid schema. The dangling clause was removed, and the
usage of 'shell' was changed from free form to use the 'cmd' parameter.
In latest ansible-lint versions, the use of "blocks" has a required
order to be implemented. According to ansible-lint error mesage, the
order is name, when, block, rescue, always.
As not following this rule is now an error, this patch fixes all tests
for the 'key-order[task]' error.
Use Fully Qualified Collection Name (FQCN) for ansible builtins. This is
ansible.builtin.set_fact instead of set_fact for example and aplies for
all actions that are part of ansible.builtin.
All the replaced ansible.builtins:
assert, command, copy, debug, fail, fetch, file, import_playbook,
import_tasks, include_role, include_tasks, include_vars, package,
set_fact, shell, slurp, stat, systemd
The group CLI option `idoverrideusers` was not supported by
ansible-freeipa, and this patch adds support to it.
Tests require an AD trust, and a user `aduser@ad.ipa.test` to exist, or
the user name must be provided (variable, CLI) through `test_ad_user`.
A new test playbook was added:
tests/group/test_group_idoverrideuser.yml
