[Freeipa-users] Pausing replication or another approach to testing whilst limiting blast radius

Dear list, I'd like to do a test run of a script that I use to sync our HR data with our freeipa infrastructure. Is it possible to pause replication, or essentially fence a server off, so that if I run the updated script against it, I can limit the changes to that target server until I've checked the changes look sound? Thanks as always, David
