SYNOPSISipa-replica-prepare [OPTION]... hostname
DESCRIPTION
Generates a replica file that may be used with ipa-replica-install to
create a replica of an IPA server.
A replica can only be created on an IPA server installed with
ipa-server-install (the first server).
You must provide the fully-qualified hostname of the machine you want
to install the replica on and a host-specific replica_file will be cre‐
ated. It is host-specific because SSL server certificates are generated
as part of the process and they are specific to a particular hostname.
If IPA manages the DNS for your domain, you should either use the
--ip-address option or add the forward and reverse records manually
using IPA plugins.
Once the file has been created it will be named replica-hostname. This
file can then be moved across the network to the target machine and a
new IPA replica setup by running ipa-replica-install replica-hostname.
A replica should only be installed on the same or higher version of IPA
on the remote system.
