Added check into migration plugin to warn user when compat is
enabled.
If compat is enabled, the migration fails and user is warned
that he
must turn the compat off or run the script with (the newly
introduced)
option '--compat'.

'--compat' is just a flag, by default set to false. If it is
set, the
compat check is skipped.


Interesting approach. I think this is probably good, preventing
migration when the compat plugin is enabled unless you specifically
decide to.

I think the option may need another name, maybe --with-compat or
something.

I think in the message we should use "enabled" instead of "on". That
is the language of ipa-compat-manage.

The migration help should have a discussion of why this is a problem
too, and what compat really is (provides a different view of the
data
to be compatible with non RFC2703bis systems).

I forget to update the commit message about the change of flag name.
Corrected patch attached.


This works ok it just seems to be making an assumption on the client
when to print this. I think a similar value like enabled needs to be
created to explicitly say why we are returning.

rob
sorry for that, value created

I think you need to define beter what compat means in the output, it
coudl be very confusing. You can return a value for it without testing
whether it is actually a problem or not.

I think what compat is supposed to mean is "Am I failing because of
compat" and not an indication of whether compat is enabled or not.

Some documentation at a minimum should be added.

It otherwise seems to work ok.

You could return a value for compat here without
I've updated the description of 'compat' value in output and also
changed the condition when this value is set to False. Now it is set to
False only when the migration fails because of compatibility plugin.


Code looks good. I think the error language needs some tweaking.

I think the help text should read:

The schema compat feature allows IPA to reformat data for systems that do not support RFC2307bis. It is recommended that this be disabled during migration to reduce system overhead. It can be re-enabled after migration. To migrate with it enabled use the "--with-compat" option.

I think the client-side error should read:

The compat plug-in is enabled. This can increase the memory requirements during migration. Disable the compat plug-in with \'ipa-compat-manage disable\' or re-run this script with \'--with-compat\' option."
