I can't see how this would be useful or which machines I would need to
add to our DNS.
Perhaps I should have explained that we are not going to set up a new
DNS domain for the ipa-managed servers. We have an Oracle dsee7 server
doing LDAP for our Linux servers and accounts. We want to migrate to
IPA so we don't have to maintain a Linux/LDAP account for every user
who needs access to Linux servers. All of our users start with an
account in AD and since none of my predecessors knew about Winbind,
they set up dsee7.
So I'm thinking we'll need to import all our dsee7 accounts AND make
it possible for AD users to access the Linux systems without needing
to create them in IPA.
So the approach would be:
1) Install IPA (do not migrate users)
2) Establish trust with AD
3) Start switching client configuration from using LDAP with dsee7 to
SSSD pointing to IPA
You do not need to migrate users.

Generally, "slave" is not allowed to do any changes so it is
useless in your
scenario.
You can run ipa-server-install *without* --setup-dns option and at
the end of
installation it will produce DNS records which you have to
manually add to
your existing DNS database.
Did you try that?
