Hi Deepak,

IIRC Centos 7 has FreeIPA 4.2.0-15 that does not support replica 
promotion and domain levels other than 0.

The error from ipa-replica-install comes probably from a leftovers of 
previous client enrollment.

Just run `ipa-client-install --uninstall -U` and then re-run replica 
installation as usual.
