I see, thanks for the explanation. I have no problems in enabling SIDs,
but probably, considering it is the only way to get a fully working
system, this should have been done automatically by the upgrade scripts
in FreeIPA.
SIDs need to be assigned to all users/groups (and in some cases also to
machines and Kerberos services). For large deployments this would mean a
lot of LDAP modifications and replication traffic. Current solution
gives administrators a way to control when this activity happens. For
example, you might want to run SID generation on a hidden replica and
proceed with upgrades of other replicas in your topology after that.
