I have rebuilt the system and reinitialised the roots from the other multi-master. The directory server looks as though it is working properly and I can connect to the admin server from one of the other machines that is running the older version of the code (fedora-idm-console) but if I run the same command on the restored box then it will not do anything just sits there having typed in the command.
