Master server: aaa01
Replica server1: dir01 (installing replica servers )
Replica server2: dirus02 (which is a replica server previously that has been removed from replication)


As noticed while installing ipa replica server, replica server retrieving two certificates from the master server, and saving it in /etc/ipa/ca.crt in this process at the stage Configuring the web interface (httpd) we got the below error i.e.

Observation in Master server(aaa01) ldap database :
=======================================

[root@aaa01~]# ldapsearch -D 'cn=directory manager' -w XXXXXXXXX | grep "ipaCertSubject"
ipaCertSubject: CN=Certificate Authority,O=IPA.EXAMPLE.COM
ipaCertSubject: CN=dirus02.ipa.example.com,O=IPA.EXAMPLE.COM
[root@aaa01~]#

====================
We could see this certificate "CN=dirus02.ipa.example.com,O=IPA.EXAMPLE.COM" in IPA master server GUI as well we have revoked it too , but still it retrieves the same and installation got fails everytime

=================

In ideal case while installing replica it has to retrieve only one certificate i.e. CN=Certificate Authority,O=IPA.EXAMPLE.COM but this case it retrieves


Please let us know if any more details required and let us know how can we fix this issue, without impact on whole setup
