How do I migrate local unix user/accounts to IDM server ?
We have many Red Hat 7 machines and we manage users/accounts locally. We built a test IPA server and a test IPA client. Both test servers are on Red Hat 7.2. I want to migrate users/accounts/passwords from the test server to IPA server. How can I do that and what are the steps for that ?

This might help. migration plan from local accounts
1) Create a user in IdM with same name as a local user (if it doesn't already exist)
2) Find all files owned by local user and replace UID/GID with the ones from IPA user with the same name
3) Remove local user
4) Repeat for all local users
5) Repeat on every machine
