Hello all! I have a CentOS 7 based FreeIPA system that I’m migrating to Rocky 9. As suggested, I’ve created a Rocky 8 instance replica first.
As I’ve been working on this (in a dev environment first), I’ve gotten myself into a state where I have two servers in the config that I cannot delete. (The VMs have been uninstalled and deleted.) ipa server-find --------------------- 7 IPA servers matched --------------------- Server name: ia-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech Min domain level: 0 Max domain level: 1 Server name: ia-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech Min domain level: 0 Max domain level: 1 Server name: joe-rocky-8.dev.purestake.tech Min domain level: 1 Max domain level: 1 Server name: joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech Min domain level: 1 Max domain level: 1 Server name: oh-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech Min domain level: 0 Max domain level: 1 Server name: oh-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech Min domain level: 0 Max domain level: 1 Server name: oh-ipa-21.dev.purestake.tech Min domain level: 1 Max domain level: 1 The two servers I want to delete are joe-rocky-9 and oh-ipa-21. Trying to delete either give me: ipa server-del joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech Removing joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech from replication topology, please wait... ipa: ERROR: Server removal aborted: Replication topology in suffix 'domain' is disconnected: Topology does not allow server ia-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech to replicate with servers: joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech Topology does not allow server ia-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech to replicate with servers: joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech Topology does not allow server joe-rocky-8.dev.purestake.tech to replicate with servers: joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech Topology does not allow server joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech to replicate with servers: joe-rocky-8.dev.purestake.tech oh-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech oh-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech ia-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech oh-ipa-21.dev.purestake.tech ia-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech Topology does not allow server oh-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech to replicate with servers: joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech Topology does not allow server oh-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech to replicate with servers: joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech Topology does not allow server oh-ipa-21.dev.purestake.tech to replicate with servers: joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech. and attempting to delete, ignoring the replication topology: ipa server-del joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech --ignore-topology-disconnect Removing joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech from replication topology, please wait... ipa: ERROR: Not allowed on non-leaf entry When I do a: ipa topologysegment-find domain the server joe-rocky-9 is not listed in any of the segments. I believe the issue is I have a bunch of replication issues regarding these two servers. (I had been adding and removing them as I was finding the right way to go about my upgrade) This command shows both of the servers: ldapsearch "nsds5ReplConflict=*" When I do the following search I see quite a few nsTombstone entries as children, which I assume is what’s blocking me from removing this DN (either using the ipa server-del command or the ldapdelete command). ldapsearch -D "cn=Directory Manager” -W "(objectclass=nsTombstone)" dn When I do this command: ipa-replica-manage list-ruv Replica Update Vectors: ia-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech:389: 4 oh-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech:389: 7 ia-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech:389: 3 oh-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech:389: 8 joe-rocky-8.dev.purestake.tech:389: 19 Certificate Server Replica Update Vectors: ia-ipa-1.dev.purestake.tech:389: 6 joe-rocky-8.dev.purestake.tech:389: 20 ia-ipa-2.dev.purestake.tech:389: 5 I get the expected list of RUVs, without the two servers I want to delete. Only the serves that are really on-line and legit show up. So I cannot use the “clean-ruv” command because the bad servers don’t show up with a replication ID. When I do this: ipa-replica-manage -p Extraordinary-northern-Conditioning-Idaho-7 clean-dangling-ruv The server 'joe-rocky-9.dev.purestake.tech' appears to be offline. The server 'oh-ipa-21.dev.purestake.tech' appears to be offline. No dangling RUVs found I see the two problematic entries timing out (as expected, since they don’t exist). I’m just not sure how to remove these two dead servers. It seems like I need to resolve or delete the nsTombstone children, but that doesn’t seem to be possible. I’m kind of wondering if I’m at a point where I’ll need to do an ipa-backup/modify the ldif/ipa-restore to get rid of these? I’m not even sure that’s possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
