[Freeipa-users] replication - ruv errors

Hello,

I'm having issues with freeipa replication. Currently we have 4 Freeipa 
servers, in a master - master relationship with replication

agreements between all servers.

I noticed the replication failure messages in the logs late last week 
and upon investigation found stale replication agreements for

ipa servers that had been replaced. Eventually I rebuilt 3 of the 4 
servers and re-initialized from the good server.

This morning my main ipa server had the directory service crash. After 
we restarted it, ipa-manage-replica --list-ruv showed

entries like these:

unable to decode: {replica 6} 55e49440000000060000 55e49440000000060000
unable to decode: {replica 4} 550b2d9e000200040000 550b2d9e000200040000

Which a cleanallruv.pl was able to remove.

We also noticed these log errors:

The cleanallruv script had no effect on these errors.

What is the proper procedure to clean up these stale entries? Is there 
something that I may be doing that causes this situation?

Thanks,

Andy
