Found the command I was looking for:
   ipa-replica-manage re-initialize --from xxx

However, one of our replicates is down and can't seem to re-initialize
it. Starting ipa fails (via systemctl restart ipa):

ipactl status
Directory Service: RUNNING
krb5kdc Service: STOPPED
kadmin Service: STOPPED
named Service: STOPPED
ipa_memcached Service: STOPPED
httpd Service: STOPPED
pki-tomcatd Service: STOPPED
ipa-otpd Service: STOPPED
ipa: INFO: The ipactl command was successful


Errors from the dirsrv show:

Attempting to re-initialize fails:

ipa-replica-manage re-initialize --from master
Connection timed out.


I verified time is in sync and DNS forward/reverse resolution is working.

Any pointers on what else to try?

Thanks!
