Sorry to declare success too quick, :( In fact, it is worse now, the IPA master fail after performing the above steps including the RUV cleaning.  I've only one working replica and I'm afraid to do anything on it.

On The IPA master, after I ran 'service ipa restart' it reported OK, but  'ipa user-find' failed. so I cleared my Kerboers TGT ticket, ran 'kinit admin' to try my luck, the IPA master  failed with the following message, it showed that 389 port listening disappeared for unknown reasons. 

[root at ipamaster slapd-EXAMPLE-COM]# kinit admin

kinit: Generic error (see e-text) while getting initial credentials
[root at ipamaster slapd-EXAMPLE-COM]# netstat -antup | grep -i LISTEN | grep ns
tcp        0      0 :::7389                     :::*                        LISTEN      6550/ns-slapd

[root at ipamaster slapd-EXAMPLE-COM]# 

The error logs are pasted here too.

Hi JR,

Thanks a lot! It works perfectly.

The only extra thing probably goes with 2.1.3 only: I need to find and clear ghost RUV records for CA database, and remove it from master and all other live replicas as well. 

BTW, on 2.2.0 the two database backends still are separate, or merged into one?

Thanks.

--David

Though it still showed in the master list reported by 'ipa-replica-manage' and 'ipa-csreplica-manage', the real command 'ipa-replica-manage list ipareplica02' fails with LDAP could't reach error.

Been there... Done that... The bug is fixed in 2.2... It will prompt and prevent you from deleting a replica host if there is an agreement.

To clean up...

0. On the master replica: ipa-replica-manage del ipareplica02.example.com --force
-This will delete the replica agreement for the host.

1. $ ldapsearch -xLLL -D "cn=directory manager" -W -b dc=example,dc=com \
'(&(nsuniqueid=ffffffff-ffffffff-ffffffff-ffffffff)(objectclass=nstombstone))'

Look for your your nsds50ruv that matches your ghost replica.

2. Create an ldif following the directions here: http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:CLEANRUV
Something like:

$ cat cleanup.ldif
dn: cn=replica,cn=dc\3Dexample\2Cdc\3Dcom,cn=mapping
 tree,cn=config
changetype: modify
replace: nsds5task
nsds5task: CLEANRUV## <- ## == The ReplicaID number for the ghost replica.

3. Run on all of the remaining replicas: ldapmodify -x -D "cn=directory manager" -W -f fixed.ldif
- This removes the ghost entry.

4. on the broken replica: ipa-server-install --uninstall

5. Follow the normal directions for 'installing a replica'
- on master: ipa-replica-prepare ipareplica02.example.com
- scp /path/to/ipareplica02.example.com.gpg  ipareplica02.example.com: ipareplica02.example.com.gpg
- on replica: ipa-replica-install  ipareplica02.example.com --whatever_options_you_used_previously

6. Check to make sure the server was built correctly and command work as expected: kinit admin, ipa user-find, ipa host-find, id admin, etc etc

7. Sigh and drink coffee

 fine.  However, on the second server I get this message in my log files.  The errors get printed out once every 1 to 5 minutes.
