[Freeipa-users] clean-ruv : How Long?

[Mark Reynolds]

Hi Janelle,

It's really hard to say how long it might take.  I know if the replicas 
are under heavy replication load it can take while to complete.  Either 
way it should not take long to complete(a few hours max) - as long as 
all the replicas are online.   There is very good logging for 
cleanAllRUV in the Directory Server's errors log. If the task is hung up 
somewhere it should say what replica(repl agreement) is causing the task 
to not progress.  Then from there you can look at that replica to see 
whats going on that system.  You might have to chase down each replica 
until you find that one that is acting up.  Typically when cleanallruv 
is not finishing it's because a replica is down(shutdown), or there is 
an old repl agreement that points to replica that no longer exists.

Here is a troubleshooting page that might also be useful:
