Thank you, I also did some digging and found that there is a bug directly related this an version 4.5.2 which is what i'm running.  Apparently it is fixed in 4.6.3 but it hasn't reached CentOS 7 EPEL repo.

Hi,

During a replication installation, the replica will use certmonger to
request certificates for 389-ds and httpd. Then certmonger (on the
replica-to-be) contacts a FreeIPA master with a cert_request command,
and the master communicates with Dogtag to issue the certificate.

When this fails, you may get more information with the following command:
- on the client that you try to promote: sudo getcert list
It may contain an error message with an explanation

- on the FreeIPA master, check the logs in /var/log/httpd/error_log.
They should contain some lines like:

[...date...] [:error] [pid 9337] ipa: INFO: [xmlserver]
host/vm-replica.ipadomain.com@IPADOMAIN.COM:
cert_request(u'MII...MJUs6', profile_id=u'caIPAserviceCert',
principal=u'ldap/replica.ipadomain.com@IPADOMAIN.COM', add=True,
version=u'2.51'): XXX

where XXX will contain the reason for the failure. The PKI logs in
/var/log/pki/pki-tomcat/ on the master may also help diagnose.

HTH,
Flo
