failed to add IPA Replica(Centos 8) on existing IPA cluster (Centos 7) with CA role enabled.

[dushyant k]

I am trying to add new replica Centos 8 IPA v.4.7 to my existing centos 7 IPA cluster which has IPA version 4.6

I am able to add centos 8 replica as ipa client however while adding as replica with setup-ca. it failing.

Also it would be great if anyone can provide documents on migrating IPA to centos 8 from centos 7

CentOS 8 has been EOL for some time now. Try with CentOS Stream 8 (or 
better, CentOS Stream 9?) instead.

Have you looked at the logs?

You've got the right approach: install new replicas on e.g., CentOS 
Stream 8, then remove the old replica(s).
