Hello,

We had an issue with one of replicas and decided to remove it from the topology and run the ipa-server-install –uninstall command on the replica. I also went through and removed all the SRV records related to the replica.

The idea was to reinstall the same server as replica again using the command:

ipa-replica-install --setup-dns --setup-ca --principal=admin --password='############' --no-forwarders

When I try to run the command, I get the following error message:

ipapython.admintool: ERROR    Cannot install replica of a server of higher version ((u'00000004', u'00000006', u'00000008', '*final')) than the local version ((u'00000004', u'00000006', u'00000006', '*final'))

ipapython.admintool: ERROR    The ipa-replica-install command failed. See /var/log/ipareplica-install.log for more information

Any ideas what might be going on here? Do I have something left-over on the replica that needs to be cleaned up manually first?

Thanks,

Jerome Talbert
