DO447 - has anyone gotten the dynamic inventory script in the comprehensive review to work?

[bschonec]

The python script ldap-freeipa.py on the materials.example.com site simply does not work.  I assume that the python script runs locally on the tower server.  The problem is that python-ldap isn't installed on tower, causing the ldap-freeipa.py script to fail AND that the FreeIPA/LDAP server doesn't have LDAP running at all.

This is a *major* blocker as you can't finish the comprehensive review without it.

Has anyone finished the comprehensive review?

The issue is that the comprehensive review relies on work to be performed in previous chapters. Specifically, chapter 12 and "lab advinventory-dynamic start' be run.

While it is explained in some chapters that work needs to be performed in previous sections/chapters it is not explained (and in fact, in the video the instructor mentions 'resetting your environment') it's critical for the completion of the comprehensive review that the environment *not* be reset or the above lab script be run.

The comprehensive review needs to have a lab setup script that sets up the utility server.

Also, I have to comment that Red Hat support for RHLS fails to impress.  It's obvious that they just comment on the support cases to reset the 'audit clock' and don't provide any valuable support.
