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...

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

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.
