Description of problem: When I attempt to install a replica on a system where a replica is already installed, I get a warning that an IPA client is configured and that I have to uninstall it using "ipa-client-install --uninstall". However, what I really need to do is to run "ipa-server-install --uninstall": [root@vm-077 ~]# ipa-replica-install /var/lib/ipa/replica-info-test.example.com.gpg --setup-dns --forwarder 10.10.10.10 IPA client is already configured on this system. Please uninstall it first before configuring the replica, using 'ipa-client-install --uninstall'. [root@vm-077 ~]# ipa-client-install --uninstall IPA client is configured as a part of IPA server on this system. Refer to ipa-server-install for uninstallation. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a replica 2. Forget that you have already done it and run ipa-replica-install again Actual results: IPA advises to uninstall the client using "ipa-client-install --uninstall". Expected results: IPA should tell the user to uninstall the replica. (Alternatively, it could advise to run "ipa-replica-manage del" first on the initial master and then uninstall the replica.)
See #5320 for patch.
