I'm running on KVM now, but I have successfully setup FreeIPA in an
OpenVZ container. Of course, there is no SELinux (the reason I
switched), but as long as you give it enough memory (I went around 2GB
for the setup), it works great.
I understand about the IP address though. You definitely want to use
an elastic IP and adjust your /etc/hosts file accordingly so the host
knows its public IP without any doubt.
