[Freeipa-users] ERROR: Operations error: Allocation of a new value for range cn=posix ids, cn=distributed numeric assignment plugin, cn=plugins, cn=config failed! Unable to proceed.

Hi Petr,

I created new DNA ranges on my primary master, this resolved the issue.

I think the issue was not adding any new user on the new master before 
decommissioning the old ones.

Regards,
Viktor
