How to improve failover mechanism on IPA client while adding users in IPA domain

Issue

• Experiencing delay while adding users in IPA via CLI on ipa-client (when IPA master is down and replica is UP)

• When IPA master is down, request goes to replica and delay is observed:

[root@ipa-client]# time ipa -v user-add testuser --first=test --last=user
ipa: INFO: trying https://master.example.com/ipa/session/xml
ipa: INFO: Connection to https://master.example.com/ipa/session/xml failed with NSPRError() argument 1 must be string or None, not int
ipa: INFO: trying https://replica.example.com/ipa/xml
ipa: INFO: Forwarding 'user_add' to server u'https://replica.example.com/ipa/xml'
-------------------
Added user "testuser"
