AFAIK, this particular error message should not be fatal to the function and
new ACI should just be ignored. Maybe the new schema did not replicate
properly. Do you see other DS errors? (CCing DS guys)

Non-working HBAC is also strange, SSSD developers will want logs to analyze,
see https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/Troubleshooting

In any case, upgrade from 3.3 to 4.1 should just work, you just need to have a
recent enough RHEL-6 servers - at least RHEL-6.6+z-streams.
