Metadata Update from @pvoborni:
- Issue assigned to someone
- Issue set to the milestone: FreeIPA 4.5 backlog

I believe Issue does not exist anymore with
ipa-server-4.5.0-22.el7_4.x86_64

# ipa-server-install --setup-dns --forwarder=<provided-ip> --hostname=rhel7u4-6.gsslab.pnq2.redhat.com -r -n gsslab.pnq2.redhat.com -p amit1234 -a amit1234 -U
Usage: ipa-server-install [options]

ipa-server-install: error: Too many arguments provided
ipa.ipapython.install.cli.install_tool(CompatServerMasterInstall): ERROR The ipa-server-install command failed. See /var/log/ipaserver-install.log for more information

But it succeeds with:
# ipa-server-install --setup-dns --forwarder=<ip-address> --hostname=rhel7u4-6.gsslab.pnq2.redhat.com -r GSSLAB.PNQ2.REDHAT.COM -n gsslab.pnq2.redhat.com -p amit1234 -a amit1234 -U
