RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Bug was saved without description:

Customer is installing replica:

ipa-replica-install --server <server> --domain <domain> --realm <realm> --setup-ca --setup-dns --no-forwarders --principal admin --admin-password some-passwd
Configuring client side components
Client hostname: XXXX
Realm: XXXXX
DNS Domain: XXXX
IPA Server: xXXXXXX
BaseDN: XXXXXXXX

Skipping synchronizing time with NTP server.
Successfully retrieved CA cert
    Subject:     CN=Certificate Authority,O=XXXX
    Issuer:      CN=Certificate Authority,O=XXXX
    Valid From:  Wed Mar 01 11:51:48 2017 UTC
    Valid Until: Sun Mar 01 11:51:48 2037 UTC

Joining realm failed: Host is already joined.

Use --force-join option to override the host entry on the server and force client enrollment.
Installation failed. Rolling back changes.
IPA client is not configured on this system.
Removing client side components
IPA client is not configured on this system.


But when he wants to install replica with --force-join, it does not work because it's an ipa-client-install option.

The workaround is to do a first ipa-client-install --force-join and then a ipa-replica-install
Comment 3 Petr Vobornik 2017-04-04 10:12:57 UTC 
If there is high demand we might try to fix this in 7.4(add --force-join option to replica installer) (there was already a preliminary patch), if not, I'd rather post-pone to future release.
