Hi Florence,
Let me give more info about our FreeIPA infraestructure. We have 8 servers
in different zones, 2 per zone.
Last year we installed the first two IPAs, one from scratch and the other
its first replica, and both with DNS and CA. CA certificates generated by
IPA itself, no external ones.
Then we replicated them to other two zones, but with DNS capability only
Now we like to move the first ones to another zone, so we created two more
replicas, but this time with CA: "ipa-replica-install --setup-dns
--setup-ca--no-forwarders"
The info you've asked :
> Can you check the output of 'ipa server-role-find' to check which servers
have the CA capability and 'ipa config-show'?
ipa server-role-find shows:
Role name: CA server
Role status: enabled
for all the four masters, the first ones, and the latest ones. The other
four have "Role status: disabled".
ipa config-show shows the same four instances as before on "IPA CA servers:"
> Were the replicas created with the option ipa-replica-install [...]
--setup-ca, or did you first create the replica then run ipa-ca-install?
ipa-replica-install --setup-ca
> Did you keep the installation log files (/var/log/ipareplica-install.log
and /var/log/ipareplica-ca-install.log)?
Yes, the CA replicas were installed yesterday. I prefer to not disclose
this logs. Is it OK to send them to you directly?
> Did you initially have a CA master that was later decommissioned?
No, the CA master should be the first IPA installed, still running and
working OK.
Thanks!

Hi,
I had a quick look at the code for changing the renewal master, and the
command succeeds even if you do not have any server currently marked as
CA renewal master.
Re. the CRL generation master, you need to make sure that your new CA
renewal master is the only one with enableCRLCache=true and
enableCRLUpdates=true, and with the RewriteRule disabled. All the other
masters need to have enableCRLCache=false, enableCRLUpdates=false and
the RewriteRule enabled.
HTH,
Flo
