Hi,
I'm fugiring out if it's possible to strip the ipa start and stop from
the backup method and actually do a fullbackup manually started.
Any idea ?
Thanks!

Hello Matt,
you can perform data only backup where freeipa server is still running
(ipa-backup --data --online).
But IIUC you want full backup with stopped freeipa sever only want to
manually run sequence ipactl stop ; ipa-backup ; ipactl start
Could you please explain why do you need such behavior? Honestly, I'm
unable to find use for this.
There's no way how to do it without touching the code. If you don't mind
editing code just remove two else branches starting on lines 293[0] and
316[1] in ipaserver/install/ipa_backup.py (on recent Fedoras located in
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/).
With this change full backup will be performed on running server unless
you stopped it before. It can result in inconsistent data in backup archive.
