SQL Server on Red Hat Linux using kerberos AD authentication

some hint if you want to deploy it:
– at first you have to join the linux server to the Active Directory
sudo realm join SQLPLAYGROUND.COM -U ‘azureadmin’ -v
kinit and klist help you to check kerberos tickets
– you can use create -k /var/opt/mssql/secrets/mssql.keytab only in Ubuntu
– you have to use ktpass /princ MSSQLSvc/REDHATSQL2019.SQLPLAYGROUND.COM:1433@CONTOSO.COM /ptype KRB5_NT_PRINCIPAL /crypto aes256-sha1 /mapuser SQLPLAYGROUND\sqluser /out mssql.keytab -setpass -setupn /kvno /pass in Red-Hat linux

The script find the instance in local windows server and find the db AG nodes and listener.
So finally you need the database name and the location of the backup folder which can be an Ola backup solution folder.
