#5403 Per-subcommnad --help and validation of options in ipa-(cs)-replica-manage
Closed: wontfix by rcritten. Opened by pvoborni.

Closed: wontfix
Reopen Issue

ipa-replica-manage and ipa-csreplica-manage tools uses sub-command interface, e.g.,

  • ipa-replica-manage del --some-option
  • ipa-replica-manage list --other-option

But validation and documentation of options is shared.

The tool should be improved that validation and help of options will be per command so that it will be clear which option belongs to which command or what are the differences in behavior when --force is used

E.g., python argparse module supports it.

Note ipa-csreplica-manage might be abandoned and ipa-replica-manage used only for winsync agreement. See freeipa-devel thread
