[Fedora-directory-devel] Please review: [Bug 214276] "rpm -e fedora-ds" uninstall doesn't remove server from configuration directory

[Noriko Hosoi]

Summary: "rpm -e fedora-ds" uninstall doesn't remove server from configuration directory

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=214276

Actually, this is a review request for the administration tool ds_unregister, which removes the server info from the Configuration Directory Server.

Regarding the original bug, I think what we can do is making sure the servers are shutdown in "rpm -e"... Can we have your comments on that, too?
Thanks,

Per discussion on the Fedora-directory-users mailing list, we decided "rpm -e"
removes files and directories which are installed by "rpm -i | -U".  Generated
files won't be removed.  I.e., after running "rpm -e", binaries including
ns-slapd shoud have been removed, while the server information in the
Configuration DS db are.

It sounds the original problem is "rpm -e" does not shutdown the servers?  Once
they are shutdown, since ns-slapd is removed, there is no way to bring it up and
see the instances?

That's said, ds_unregsiter may not be needed in this scenario, but it'd be a
useful tool for the administrators.
