Stanislav Levin 139f6b63b1 pylint: Fix deprecated-class
There is no actual usage of deprecated classes for Python3.
Pylint complains about such for Python2. Since Python2 is no
longer supported these imports were removed.

IPA platform abstraction

The ipaplatform package provides an abstraction layer for supported Linux distributions and flavors. The package contains constants, paths to commands and config files, services, and tasks.

  • base abstract base platform
  • debian Debian- and Ubuntu-like
  • redhat abstract base for Red Hat platforms
  • fedora Fedora
  • fedora_container freeipa-container on Fedora
  • rhel RHEL and CentOS
  • rhel_container freeipa-container on RHEL and CentOS
  • suse OpenSUSE and SLES

  │   ├─ fedora

(Note: Debian and SUSE use some definitions from Red Hat namespace.)

freeipa-container platform

The fedora_container and rhel_container platforms are flavors of the fedora and rhel platforms. These platform definitions are specifically designed for freeipa-container. The FreeIPA server container implements a read-only container. Paths like /etc, /usr, and /var are mounted read-only and cannot be modified. The image uses symlinks to store all variable data like config files and LDAP database in /data.

  • Some commands don't write through dangling symlinks. The IPA platforms for containers prefix some paths with /data.
  • ipa-server-upgrade verifies that the platform does not change between versions. To allow upgrades of old containers, sysupgrade maps $distro_container to $distro platform.
  • The container images come with authselect pre-configured with sssd with-sudo option. The tasks modify_nsswitch_pam_stack and migrate_auth_configuration are no-ops. ipa-restore does not restore authselect settings. ipa-backup still stores authselect settings in backup data.
  • The --mkhomedir option is not supported.
