#5662 ID Views: do not allow custom Views for the masters
Closed: fixed by frenaud. Opened by mkosek.

Closed: fixed
Reopen Issue

The FreeIPA server itself only supports the default ID View, it does not work with customized views for host groups.

The Web UI/CLI should be extended with a validation, to forbid adding FreeIPA servers to the unsupported views. The validator would avoid user confusion when the custom ID View is not working.
