[Freeipa-users] replication procedure and status check?

[David Copperfield]

Hi howdy,

 Is there a nagios check for replication check among IPA servers and replicas? If not, is there a way to test the replica status through some files or underlying LDAP command outputs?

I have one test environment with a IPA server on a Vmware instance, two IPA replicas created from the server, and a few IPA clients which talks to replicas. 


I shutdown IPA server from time to time for whole machine level backups. after IPA server boots back up again, some times it fails 'IPA user-find' command.  I am not sure:

  1, how long does it take for the IPA server to replicate/sync from changes on IPA replicas during the server's down time?
  2, How to check the replication/sync processes?
  3, are the IPA commands failed as a protection because the IPA server is still in replication/sync waiting/doing process?

Thanks.

--David.
