To reconnect to the remote master you will need to prepare a new replica file
and re-install.
Continue to delete? [no]: yes
Deleting this server will orphan 'vuwunicoipam001xxxxxxxxx and

You will need to reconfigure your replication topology to delete this server.
[root@vuwunicoipam001 thing]# ipa-replica-manage list
Directory Manager password:
vuwunicoipam002.xxxxxxxx master
vuwunicoipam003.xxxxxxxx master
vuwunicoipam001.xxxxxxxx master
[root@vuwunicoipam001 thing]#"
So how do I re-configure?
Every server is a master. The only differences may be the services running (CA
and/or DNS) and only one generates the CRL and manages certificate renewal.
Otherwise they are all equal masters.
This doesn't show the topology. Were I to guess it looks like:
001
/ \
002 003
So you need to run ipa-replica-manage connect vuwunicoipam002 vuwunicoipam003
Then you should be able to delete 0001. Just be sure at least one of those
other masters has a CA, if not both of them. You may need ipa-csreplica-manage
connect to connect that topology.
Also be aware of the DNA config. A master doesn't automatically get one. It
only gets it when it creates an entry that needs a range.
However, in this case this should not be a problem AFAIK, given that
ipa-replica-manage tries to preserve the DNA range, from FreeIPA 3.2:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3321
Well, Steven didn't mention his version so I assumed 3.0. It doesn't
hurt to double-check the ranges in advance.
It can still be an issue if one of the masters lacks a DNA range. My
patch harvests the DNA range but IIRC doesn't reset the DNA master
server on all other masters. So one may still be pointing to nowhere and
fail to get a range when needed.
