Anybody running their freeipa / IDM cluster on a 100% virtualized environment? We are
running the full stack - DNS, ldap, Certs etc and I’m wondering if we can run it all on a
VM environment. My concern is the chicken/egg scenario in case of a full DC recovery.
Thoughts? Thanks.

We do, kinda. In our Cultural Heritage Cluster, our FreeIPA server (only
one at the moment) is in vmware vsphere, all other servers in the
cluster (apart from the datanodes of course) are on oVirt(which I can
recommend). Nothing in vmware or oVirt is dependent on FreeIPA, so there
will be no chicken and egg scenario.
All we have to do in a full DR is to reestablish the NFS servers that
holds the vm images and then we can start up the VM's. These NFS servers
are backed up by a backup system that is also not dependent on FreeIPA
or even DNS.

Not sure if this meets you definition of cluster or not but all of our IdM
servers are VMs. We have a multi-master set with standard replication. I
have IdM servers 2 in one location with 1 serving as DNS CA, LDAP, etc and
a second serving SMB shares and backing up the LDAP services. Across
private links in to another location/facility we have a second master with
the full suite of services installed and used. We do not use AD so the
level of complexity compared to mixed environments is low but everything
works fine for us.
