Hi,

Running IPA-server 4.5.0-21

I lost 2/3 IPA servers from power failure, replication didn't recover. I want to drop the replicas and add new ones, but can't see a list of replicas. It's giving me SERVFAIL for google DNS which seems unlikely.

Anyone know of a trick forward to recovery?

[root@auth1 root]# ipa-replica-manage list

ipa: ERROR: DNS query for auth1.example.com. A failed: All nameservers failed to answer the query auth1.example.com. IN A: Server 8.8.8.8 UDP port 53 answered SERVFAIL

Re-run /sbin/ipa-replica-manage with --verbose option to get more information

Unexpected error: All nameservers failed to answer the query gvoauth1.gvoperations.com. IN A: Server 8.8.8.8 UDP port 53 answered SERVFAIL



The worst part: it seems like DNS works great and FreeIPA has hit a snag. =(


# from freeipa

[root@auth1 iptables]# dig google.com @8.8.8.8
