Hi Marcelo,

Take care with inplace upgrade of IPA between major versions of RHEL, as it is not supported.

For RHEL 7 to RHEL 8 upgrades take a look at:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/installing_identity_management/update-downgrade-ipa_installing-identity-management

For RHEL 8 to RHEL 9 upgrades look at:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html-single/migrating_to_identity_management_on_rhel_9/index#migrating_idm_from_rhel_8_to_rhel_9

Remember that SIDs are now enforced, and there have been a ton of recent discussions about issues on that matter, on this list.
