So far I have only read through the code without running it (mostly).


"Remove unused arguments": ACK


"Simplify the install_replica_ca function": ACK


"IPA Custodia Daemon":

1) Instead of putting the code in "ipakeys" package, could you put it in 
"ipapython.keys"? This way it would be consistent with DNSSEC, which has 
binaries in daemons/dnssec/ and modules in ipapython/dnssec/.

2) Is it safe to create cn=custodia in update file only? Updates are 
executed late in ipa-server-install. Is is guaranteed that nothing will 
try to access cn=custodia before the updates are run?

(Nevermind, it is added to bootstrap-template.ldif 2 commits below.)

3) Shouldn't cn=custodia be created only when domain level >= 1?

4) pylint fails with:

daemons/ipa-custodia/ipakeys/kem.py:156: [E1002(super-on-old-class), 
IPAKEMKeys.__init__] Use of super on an old style class)
daemons/ipa-custodia/ipakeys/kem.py:178: [E1101(no-member), 
IPAKEMKeys.generate_server_keys] Instance of 'IPAKEMKeys' has no 
'config' member)
daemons/ipa-custodia/ipakeys/kem.py:187: [E1101(no-member), 
IPAKEMKeys.server_keys] Instance of 'IPAKEMKeys' has no 'config' member)

5) There are some PEP8 transgressions:

./daemons/ipa-custodia/ipakeys/kem.py:202:80: E501 line too long (82 > 
79 characters)
./daemons/ipa-custodia/ipakeys/kem.py:203:80: E501 line too long (82 >

./daemons/ipa-custodia/setup.py:16:1: W391 blank line at end of file


"Add Custodia Client code":

1) Is there any significance in having this in a separate commit? I 
would think it can be safely squashed in the previous commit.


2) There is one PEP8 transgression:

./daemons/ipa-custodia/ipakeys/client.py:45:5: E303 too many blank lines (2)


"Install ipa-custodia with the rest of ipa":

1) python-jwcrypto dependency is missing in the spec file.

2) I believe the daemons/ipa-custodia/* and 
install/share/bootstrap-template.ldif should be in the "IPA Custodia 
Daemon" commit. At the very least it would make reviews easier.

3) There is one PEP8 transgressions:

./ipaserver/install/custodiainstance.py:10:1: E302 expected 2 blank 
lines, found 1


"Require a DS version that has working DNA plugin": ACK


"Implement replica promotion functionality":

1) I think a RuntimeError or sys.exit with an error message would be 
better than NotImplementedError for the unimplemented options.

(Nevermind, these are removed in further commits.)

2) There is no domain level check when installing the replica from a 
replica file.

3) Instead of returning INSTALL_ERROR from promote_check() (which has no 
effect), raise an exception or call sys.exit().

4) The --promote option is redundant. You can safely decide whether to 
promote or not based on whether replica file was provided or not and the 
domain level of the remote server.

5) There are some PEP8 transgressions:

"Change DNS installer code to use passed in api": LGTM


"Allow ipa-replica-conncheck to use default creds": LGTM


"Add function to extract CA certs for install": LGTM

"Make checks for existing credentials reusable":

1) There are some PEP8 transgressions:

./ipaserver/install/installutils.py:1140:1: E302 expected 2 blank lines, 
found 1

"Allow ipa-ca-install to use the new promotion code":

1) The --replica option is redundant. You can safely decide whether this 
is the first CA master or not based on information in cn=masters.

2) There are some PEP8 transgressions:
