Hi,

The replica server no long exists, I bare metal kick-started it...so I need to 
get it to rejoin the domain which it wont.

Given all the other issues Im wondering if a totally clean start isnt a plan 
now...

Because it needs to stop all the IPA services. The list of services is
stored in LDAP.

No. It does not remove DNS records or replication agreements.

Your best bet is to figure out why the dirsrv instance won't start.

Trying to remove and restore everything manually can be a lot of work.
Figuring out why dirsrv won't start is likely the path of least resistence.
