Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7): Bug 1367572

Description of problem:
ipa help config-mod doesnt have all options documented
While trying to do ipa migrate-ds, It fails with an error.
# ipa migrate-ds ldap://rhds9-1.gsslab.pnq.redhat.com:389
Password:

migrate-ds:

Migration mode is disabled. Use 'ipa config-mod' to enable it.
but ipa config-mod doesnt have any documentation about Migration option.
# ipa help config-mod |grep -i migrate
-- No Output --
Below commands works well, but this option should be documented.
# ipa config-mod --enable-migration=TRUE
Additional info:
It is properly documented in https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_
Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Linux_Domain_Identity_Authentication_and_Policy_Gui
de/Migrating_from_a_Directory_Server_to_IPA-Performing_a_Client_based_Migration
.html
I think it should be documented in help page of ipa config-mod
