[Freeipa-users] Not able to pass through ipa-replica-install on centos 7

[Deepak Dimri]

Hi Martin, Before running ipa-replica-install do i need to run ipa-server-install script on the replica?


I am installing ipa-server-install script on the replica and  then If i install ipa-replica-install without uninstalling ipa server then i get below errors:

 [root at ip-172-31-23-230 ipa]# ipa-replica-install /var/lib/ipa/replica-info-replica.ipa.com.gpg
 ipa.ipapython.install.cli.install_tool(Replica): ERROR    IPA client is already configured on this system.
Please uninstall it first before configuring the replica, using 'ipa-client-install --uninstall'.

when i try 'ipa-client-install --uninstall' then i am getting bellow

ipa-client-install --uninstall IPA client is configured as a part of IPA server on this system. Refer to ipa-server-install for uninstallation


Thanks,

Deepak

Thanks Martin, I had to run ipa-server-install --uninstall -U to get rid of IPA client error message on the replica server and then re run ipa-replica-install script to run it ok. But it does not look clean through - as i understand we do need to run ipa-server-install script ( same as master) on the replica server but that script by default installs the ipa client which then cause replica install to fail.  Is there any way i can avoid IPA client installation on replica?


You need to run ipa-replica-install installer and client is required part of any server. Can you be more specific what kind of errors are you getting? Logs?

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.
