IPA hosts are not joining the domain if the host already exists.

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • Allow client to re-enroll without first unenrolling
  • In IPA when you run the client install command it will not join if the host is already joined:

    Joining realm failed: Host is already joined.
    Installation failed. Rolling back changes.
    IPA client is not configured on this system.
    

Is there an option force join process?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4
  • ipa-client
