Good Afternoon,

What are the minimum requirements to run freeipa? I am looking at
implementing this on some internal infrastructure in terms of bare
metal servers running in a vm that is setup and managed by proxmox.

Official documentation guidelines:
https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/installing_identity_management/preparing-the-system-for-ipa-server-installation_installing-identity-management#hardware-recomendations_preparing-the-system-for-ipa-server-installation

Absolute minimum is around 2-3GB RAM for a deployment with integrated
CA, DNS, and a domain controller for AD/Samba services. This will be a
slow setup.

You can see our gating definitions in
ipatests/prci_definitions/gating.yaml, they are for one giant VM that
hosts nested VMs of the deployed test machines.

  master_1repl: &master_1repl
    name: master_1repl
    cpu: 4
    memory: 6750
  master_1repl_1client: &master_1repl_1client
    name: master_1repl_1client
    cpu: 4
    memory: 8000
  master_2repl_1client: &master_2repl_1client
    name: master_2repl_1client
    cpu: 5
    memory: 10750
  ad_master_2client: &ad_master_2client
    name: ad_master_2client
    cpu: 4
    memory: 10596
  adroot_adchild_adtree_master_1client: &adroot_adchild_adtree_master_1client
    name: adroot_adchild_adtree_master_1client
    cpu: 8
    memory: 14466
  ipaserver: &ipaserver
    name: ipaserver
    cpu: 2
    memory: 2750

For example, a single IPA server above (ipaserver definition) is 2.75GB
RAM, this is for small number of users and groups to test.

For a small lab I'd suggest 8GB RAM, 2-4 CPUs. Disk space available is
typically less relevant once you have 10-20GB available for the VM.
