During the migration, both the 3.0 replicas and the 4.2 replicas were in the replica pool. User account changes made to 3.0 would replicate to 4.2 just fine, but changes wouldn’t replicate from 4.2 to 3.0.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Admins should have been aware of this and performing all changes to the 3.0 replicas. However 2 accounts were created on the 4.2 replicas and then also added to the 3.0 replicas. This resulted in a replication conflict and each user account has a duplicate with the same username but different UIDs.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I want to delete the duplicates. “ipa user-del” will not take the UID as an identifier, only the username. Using just the username fails with an error due to the duplicate accounts.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The old 3.0 replicas have all been removed from the pool and decommissioned. It would be tons of work to bring them back into production.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Any thoughts on how to fix this issue?<br class=""><div class=""> <div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#080F8E"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline">Cheers,</font></font></font></div><div class="" style="font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><b class=""><font class="" size="4" color="#0096ff">Zak Wolfinger</font></b></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3D3D3E">Infrastructure Engineer | Emma®</font></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><a href="mailto:zak.wolfinger@myemma.com" class="">zak.wolfinger@myemma.com</a></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3D3D3E">800.595.4401 or 615.292.5888 x197</font></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#3D3D3E">615.292.0777 (fax)</font></div><div class="" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><div class="" style="margin: 0px;"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#756F8E" face="Verdana"><b class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></b></font></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Verdana; font-size: 11px;">Emma helps organizations everywhere communicate & market in style.</span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0px;"><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#333333" face="Verdana" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px;">Visit us online at </span></font><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#333333" face="Verdana" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px;"><a href="http://myemma.com/?utm_source=%20EmmaSignatures&utm_medium=%20email&utm_content=text-lin%20k&utm_campaign=EmmaSignatu%20res-email-text-link-home" class=""><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Verdana" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); font-size: 11px;">www.myemma.com</span></font></a></span></font></div></div></div> </div> <br class=""></div></body></html>
