@silverwizard It's more of a headache than just OpenLDAP. FreeIPA has a lot of different components. It does LDAP, Kerberos, PKI, and DNS.
I currently have my FreeIPA domain set up with 3 IPA replicas. I've had instances where I had to resolve LDAP replication issues or certificates and tokens for FreeIPAs internal services not renewing correctly.
