This seems to have done the trick!

[root at caroline0 PROD ~]# ldapdelete -x -D 'cn=Directory Manager' -W
cn=caroline1.lafayette.edu,cn=masters,cn=ipa,cn=etc,dc=systems,dc=lafayette,dc=edu

Enter LDAP Password:
[root at caroline0 PROD ~]# ldapsearch -LLL -x -b
cn=caroline1.lafayette.edu,cn=masters,cn=ipa,cn=etc,dc=systems,dc=lafayette,dc=edu
dn
No such object (32)
Matched DN: cn=masters,cn=ipa,cn=etc,dc=systems,dc=lafayette,dc=edu
[root at caroline0 PROD ~]# ls
anaconda-ks.cfg  ca-agent.p12  cacert.p12  cobbler.ks  install.log
install.log.syslog  ks-rhn-post.log  RPM-GPG-KEY-lafayette
[root at caroline0 PROD ~]# ipa-replica-manage list
caroline0.lafayette.edu: master
caroline2.lafayette.edu: master


Thanks a bunch!
