The problem is the ca_status() uses an HTTP GET operation to check Dogtag's status. Under some circumstances Dogtag may take a long time to respond, so the HTTP GET may time out much earlier than 2 minutes. And since the above code doesn't catch the exception, the whole loop fails immediately, so it doesn't wait for a full 2 minutes as expected. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3492
This is a set of libraries common to IPA clients and servers though mostly
geared currently towards command-line tools.
A brief overview:
config.py - identify the IPA server domain and realm. It uses python-dns to
try to detect this information first and will fall back to
/etc/ipa/default.conf if that fails.
ipautil.py - helper functions
entity.py - entity is the main data type. User and Group extend this class
(but don't add anything currently).
ipavalidate.py - basic data validation routines
