14 IPA glues several discrete services together to work in concert and the
15 order that these services are started and stopped is important. ipactl
16 ensures that they are started and stopped in the correct order.
17
18 IPA stores the available masters and the services configured on each
19 one. The first thing ipactl does is start (if it is not already run‐
20 ning) the IPA 389-ds instance to query what services it controls. The
21 hostname used in the query needs to match the hostname of the value
22 stored in LDAP. This can be controlled with the host option in
23 /etc/ipa/default.conf. This should be a fully-qualified hostname.
