[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH][RFC] 7 automember rebuild nowait feature added

[Misnyovszki Adam]

Hi,

automember-rebuild uses asynchronous 389 task, and returned success
even if the task didn't run. This patch fixes this issue adding a
--nowait parameter to 'ipa automember-rebuild', defaulting to False,
thus when the script runs without it, it waits for the 'nstaskexitcode'
attribute, which means the task has finished, according to
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Task_Invocation_Via_LDAP#Implementation.
Old usage can be enabled using --nowait.

Request for comments:
- Should I add a parameter to specify the polling time? (now 1ms)
- Should I add a parameter to specify the maximum polling number? Now
  if something fails about creating the task, it polls forever.
- Obviously, if these parameters should be added, there should be a
  reasonable default for them (~ Required=False, Default=X).

Thanks,
Adam
