I was working to bring down my IPA master server and did it improperly. It was a rookie mistake, but I'm willing to view it as an exercise in recovering from a massive system failure. The original master server is gone with no way of recovering and I have managed to replace the server by promoting one of my replicas, but I find myself in a situation where I cannot remove the original master server from the LDAP directory. It is still seen as a master server and the webUI will not let me delete the system from directory server. Is there a process somewhere that will walk me through demoting the old server so I can delete it from the directory and officially promote its replacement? For reference, I followed the steps located at this link. Centos 7.2 / freeIPA 4.2 Your help is greatly appreciated. <div class="moz-signature">-- Michael Rainey </div> </body> </html>
